Before. Notice the short legs, typical of a piebald.

I defiantly would, it is quite possibly a once in a lifetime opportunity. also there is an outside chance that he could do some breeding when he is older and i would not want a herd of piebalds. it would draw unneeded attention (poachers) and would also make for some easy pickings for coyotes and other predators.

I'll say this. I've been hunting since the early 70's andI've seen exactlytwo piebalds.One, when I wasn't actually hunting at the time. I was scouting a residential area many years ago.The other one I was hunting, and hunting it specifically because I'd gotten a trail cam pic of it, as per my previous post. So yes, they are quite rare.
