"White Deer, Ghost of the Forest"

Pretty cool story about a herd of white deer living in Wisconsin.

I really get a kick out of the expressions some of these deer have and the white rack on the buck is incredible. Never seen anything close to these before.

Anybody have some first hand knowledge of this herd or a similar herd?

You were definitely right about that buck, I've seen pics of albino bucks before, but that buck in the velvet was amazing. Never anything even close.

Neat video for sure.

We have a few of those every once in a while in my neck of the woods and most people will not shoot them, it is considered VERY bad luck to kill a white deer where I'm from.

Pretty cool buck indeed!! Here's the most white velvet I've seen in person before, video of the bullwinkle was taken last year. Not full white velvet but his points on the one side sure were bright white!!

There's a few around!

I've seen a couple white Deer in my day!

Never a True Albino though I Guess?

On a True Albino,would the Velvet be that White too?

That bull moose is just showing his age some and needs a little "Just for Men".

Not only bad luck but in some states illegal.
