That is a very rare trophy indeed, not to mention a dandy buck as well. That was a good article. I had the pleasure of guiding the writer, Tom Fegley at our outfitting business last fall for a fall turkey hunt. He is a great guy as well as talented.

OMG!! I was going to post something about has anyone seen a black deer before prior to reading this topic. There is a button buck that has been on my acreage since he was a fawn......other deer do not seem to care for him much, and although one of this years early fawns.....he is almost black!!! His pelt is as dark as the pic. I have seen in my 46 years(for odd deer)....several piebalds, one true albino, and then this little guy that is unreal it seems he is so dark.......... I hope that he makes it to harvest time in several years!! No doubt that his daddy was one of the great seed bucks in this area. BTW, Awesome buck, and pic!

That's an awesome buck alone, but to add that color, what a trophy.

Government's view of the economy could be summed up in a few short phrases: If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. And if it stops moving, subsidize it.

That is neat, I have seen real dark bucks before but they all had the normal white markings. To see a all dark deer is very rare, I have not even heard of that before. Nice trophy!!!!!

Great buck! Thanks for sharing. I remember seeing a dark colored deer, and it was a very nice buck, the afternoon before firearms season started in Crawford County, Missouri in the mid 70s. AS far as I know, no one ever took that buck. The story provides an explanation for what we saw that day.

I didn't mean to confuse you guys, but just to let you know, it was not me that shot that buck. I just thought it was a good article and I wanted to share it. Sorry for any confusion. :)

it is referred to as a MELANISTIC deer. It's caused by an overprodution of the skin pigment melanin. It is a rarer occurence than albinism.

Awesome trophy! Congrats to the lucky young man that bagged it!

Speaking of melanism, I once shot a groundhog that had it, and didn't even have a clue as to what it was. I showed it to some of the neighbors, and they agreed that it was truly a unique animal, but everyone thought it got into a vein of coal and it stained it's fur. It wasn't until many years later that I read an article on this rare form of genetic mutation that I realized the trophy I had bagged. Wish I would have skinned it out and tanned the hide, or better yet taken some photos.

Thanks for posting that, I have never seen a deer that dark and with as they say virtually no white! I will be honest, I would not of beleived it unless I saw that pic!

My dad shot a buck in MN about 1980 that was nearly as dark. We had a gray tabby cat at that time that was the same hue. I always wanted to see another deer with similar coloring because it was both unusual and beautiful. The article was great in explaining the phenomenon and tellig me why I have probably not seen another since.

I have seen one black deer here in georgia, it ran across the road in front of my car, then bounded through an open field letting me get a good look at at. I've always wanted one. Thats very cool. I've seen pictues of black mulies too. They had alot of this kind of stuff in a magazine I saw at walmart. I think it was called &quot;wierd whitetails&quot; or something along those lines. It had lots of non typicals and albinos in it.

&quot;Hey ya'll, watch this&quot;
