Albino deer are they usally Does
I live in north east P.A. and in the last couple of years there have been three albinos on my road one was all white the other to were mixed patches of brown and white but i think they were all does . It was the first time ive seen them in my life they are rare and wonderful to see but they have all been harvested the one was right behind my place all summer she was to tame though my aunt actually walked right up to her and took a bunch of pictures i could not believe it if i had not seen it for my self i was hoping she would make it thruogh deer season but somebody found her dead somebody had shot her and not found her some other hunters found her later on .Im a hunter and Ive hunted all my life but I would not have shot her because they are rare i would have been courios to see if she would have had albino babys any body know any more about albinos let me know im pretty sad she did not make it.:<(

RE: Albino deer are they usally Does
pabuckhunter,a true albino is all white and has pink eyes.What they call a piebald is white and can have small areas, or large spots of brown on them.An albino is not seen as much as a piebald but they pop up once in awhile.I have seen pics of buck and doe albinos.I see you live in northeast pa out on presque Isle state park they had a piebald doe that was hanging around the marina area.I saw it once before they had their yearly deer hunt on the park.No one was allowed to shoot the piebald.
