we have sika deer here on the eastern shore of MD. They are the smallest member of the Elk family but that sure is a long way for one those to travel......It does resemble a sika hind however

I dont think he is playing a joke, he is just as confused as the rest of us.....

It looks like a Whitetail with some melanism and/or possibly some piebald characteristics. Whitetails have lots of different "looks" - someties the camera can exagerate them too.

On year - we had a yearling buck with an almost black head - even the velvet was very very dark -
We never heard of it shot - and we never saw it again - but we video taped it on the mid 90s.

Melanistic phase doe.

Loosk like awhitetail to me thats multing..... possibly some color phase its going through. Ears arent big enough to be an elk but yet its also shapped like a roe deer but ill lean towards a fat yearling thats multing.

looks like a possible bi-gender white tail with more female caracteristics.
