As long as it is legal where you hunt, there is nothing unethical about it!
I can't even understand why it would be illegal anywhere! An albino deer usually has a shorter life expectancy anyway! Part of that might be due to them not having any camoflage and being easy prey for predators other than hunters! But again, there is really no scientific reason to protect them!

The reason people protect them is that they're beautiful, and people like to watch them.

My buddy shot an albino a couple years ago. I heard it's bad luck to do so.
Now he's divorced...you descide.

That would almost be a PETA argument! All deer are beautiful!

It's just a superstition. Nothing ethical about it.They are just as normal as any other deer, just a different color. We have a white buck here that passes thru now and then. No one shoots him cause he's nice to look at. All the neighbors hopes he hangs around. He has put out one solid white fawn so far.

I don't see it as unethical, but we wouldn't do it.
