Nice buck, weird colour[8D]

Trushot, are you going to keep us in suspense , or tell us what this deer is, spray painted, freak, or what![:@]

That a cool color. Must be 1/2 skunk

I ahve never heard of such a thing. That is really cool!

Good Luck!

I've never heard of it either ,but he would definetly be going on my wall that's for sure.

Melanism is rarer condition than pie-bald or albinoism. It's the same basic scenario tough...issues in the melanomes(sp) that alter pigmentation. This one was taken on a lease near Junction, Tx. and the shooter is doing a shoulder mount with the hide splayed on the wall behind it.

I've heard of people seeing these here in MI, but never seen one myself. Albino are protected in this state and while I don't think it mentions anything about melanisitics...I'm pretty sure you'd have a lot of publicity around here with one.

What a rare buck! Congrats!

Definitely is a wall hanger!

wow, what a beautiful animal......

Thanks for answering back, Trushot! I did'nt think somebody would go that far as to spray paint a deer black, but, then again , you never know!
