looks like a yearling elk. I have heard that they have been crossing the borders out of Kentucky....

RE: Oddball deer

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

RE: Oddball deer

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.

RE: Oddball deer

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.
