Amy Mattson spotted this all-white whitetail deer near Grafton last weekend. A pink nose and presumably pink eyes - a deer bereft of any color - means the she appeared to be observing a rare albino deer.

Sure would make things a lot easier if someone could genetically engineer them to be hunter orange.

Hopefully some assh*le with a high powered rifle won’t kill it.

Rare indeed.I was fortunate to see an albino racon once when I was younger but to see this beautiful animal would have been something unreal.Thanks for posting.

It does appear to be a true albino.
How often does that occur in deer?

That’s racist. I demand an equal number of Black deer.

Beautiful animal. Wasn’t it a white stag that the elves chased through Mirkwood? ;o)

There are white deer all over the woods here in the Finger Lakes, and they are not albinos...they are simply white. Most of them are within the confines of the old Seneca Army Depot. Here they can be shot like any other deer, in fact, a friend has a doe mounted in a glass case in his living room.

Isn’t there some old Indian legend or Nostradamus story about the end of days when a great white deer appears and crazy people occupy a street called “Wall”????

Cool...natural winter camo. Not so good in the summer, though.

This is a mutant deer that must be eliminated in order to protect the gene pool...
