June 20, 2007: Albino fawn

We've had several albinos recently so why wait until Friday? XoB finds this beaut at Weather Underground; there is no further information on it, but hey, what would there be?

Sad thing is that it won't live long.

its beautiful and yet creepy...

partially reminds me of malachi from children of the corn, but then again, it is such an awesome example of the sporadic (sp?) way genes mutate

rock on little freak deer! rock on

Not round here, anyrate. Any one got a good venison recipe? It looks nice and tender.

how beautiful!

Well if it isn't going to live long then it needs to be moved to a safe wildlife park.

Probaby the powers that be will just rather let nature take it's course.

nice
but
the albino hedgehog is the best!

It's been hanging around a campground at Clinton Lake, IL. Maybe somebody will adopt it... or bar-b-que it.

has anyone else noticed that deer are becoming less timid lately? Many of them don't even run away anymore when you encounter them. They just stand there for a while and then slowly walk away. And there are the turkeys that just sit there in the middle of the highway and don't move.

I like the fact that the deer seem to be starting to figure out cars ... not 100%, but better than they have been.

I bet it does great during the winter.

I HATE those kind of drivers!

That's good Sheldonrs. It reminds me of this drinking song:

[INDENT] Dos Equis, a Mexican beer,
Ray, my friend who buys me beer,
Me, the guy Ray buys beer for,
Fa, a long way to the bar,
So, I'll have another beer,
La, la la la lots of beer,
Tea, f*** no, I want some beer,
Which will bring us back to doe, doe, doe ...[/INDENT]

i received these from someone a while back - it would be really odd if it happened to be the same one -

Those pics circulated last year, I think. I've never seen the one UT posted.

This one looks like he's left a huge stain on the carpet!

That's because I just stole them on the 16th, hot off the camera.

Hahaha, I'm glad you're back, Sheldon.

Thanks Blue and y'all. Been busy with a new job. I'm now working for the Make A Wish Foundation in Phoenix.
Great job, better pay and better hours but no time for the net at work. :-(

Wonder what it would look like mounted on my trophy wall?

Thanks! I miss you and coming here. The one bad thing about my new job.

When your contract comes up for renewal, negotiate the Cellar as a benefit.
Our benefit.

I actually took those pictures about 2 weeks ago. The fawn was probably a few weeks old by then. So it isn't the same one that was going around last year. It is in a pretty safe place and they are protected so it should be okay.

Welcome to the cellar, mitzy259.:D
You said the fawn is protected... is it a state park or something like that?

First, how close did you get to take those pictures?
Secondly, how did you find us?
Oh, and kudos on two fine shots.

Thanks, the fawn is in a state park and you can't hunt true albinos. The pictures were pretty easy, it was along side the roadway, but he didn't stay long, that is why the one is blurry. But I did get quite a few good shots, hopefully I will get more.

There is a rule/law against hunting albinos? In the park or state wide? I've never heard of that, I wonder if others states do it?
If you get more shots, come back and post them. We'd love to see this deer grow up.

Now an albino mountain goat in Italy.

In Illinois it is illegal, if you google hunting albino deer it will give you a listing. BTW that is how I found my picture on this site. If I take anymore I will post them, Thanks.

That would be great, thanks a million.

The Seneca Army depot in upstate NY is filled with white deer. Everybody still jokes..."they're in the fence 'cause everyone knows white deer can't jump." Seneca is famous for neither confirming or denying nuclear or chemical weapons storage - and the deer aren't telling.

Man.
Such a nice white canvas...

Where's my tie-die kit.
