I would give my left one for an albino, buck or doe! They are legal in Va. and should be legal every where, albino' s are geneticaly inferior. Tell your friend congrats!

Hankfan...that' s an awesome trophy he' s got there! Thanks for sharing that. I' d love to see a pic of the mount as well if you can get one. I' ve never seen a true albino, but piebalds are fairly common where I hunt.

here is a piebald spike.he only had brown on his neck and head. are you going to have a full body mount?great trophy of a lifetime!

Wow, is that neat or what. It is illegal here to shoot a " white" deer.

Give him my congratulations!

Where did he hit it? I would think the entry and exit wounds would be easy to spot but I don' t see any.

Thanks for sharing.

I' m curious to why someone wouldn' t take an albino, piebald, melanistic(black) or white deer if given the opportunity. Doesn' t that fall into the relm of anti hunting of sorts. Just an observation now. I understand it' s illegal in many states and that makes no sense to me what so ever. Simply put, it' s a whitetail deer. Why would we protect it over a normal colored animal or trophy buck? Yes, they are more rare making them to me, a unique trophy. Here in PA they are legal game treated no differently than any other whitetail. They breed, they eat, they do damage, etc...the same as any other deer. To protect one simply isn' t doing herd management any favors.

It falls down the mystic of the animal itself....it' s your choice where legal, shoot or don' t shoot. But protect them, why?

Great pictures...and in all honesty that is the only time I have actually seen an albino...in pictures that is. Piebalds are relatively common in my area in comparison to a true albino. I usually see at least one piebald deer every season...buck or do.

haha, I don' t know about that, but it would be nice. I' ve seen a few piebalds in Fairfax recently. Hopefully I' ll have the opportunity to harvest one this fall.

I' m with Rob. I' m not sure why someone wouldn' t harvest an albino deer, assuming it' s legal in your state. Until reading this, i had no idea that it was illegal to take one anywhere.

Ok - for some reason all I see is a box with a red " x" in it. What am I doing wrong that I can' t see the albino?

Won' t show for me either.
