Albino Fawn from folks who live on Bolivar Peninsula , Texas      

The note they sent:

A very eventful day around here... A once in many lifetimes experience!  


Mark saw this lil' feller run out! in front of a car, thought it was a lost baby goat. Stopped to get it, and WOW. A real Albino Whitetail Deer. Just hours old, but doing fine. No Moma deer around. Another car nearly hit it in front of Mark...  


Well,, he is THE neatest thing any of us ever saw. And such a 'freak of nature', that only 1 in more than a million are even born. He took his bottle of food, followed us around the house, doing great. So, we called the Zoo & Fossil Rim, who were both interested, but going to send him to a Rehab farm, at a vet that we have never gotten along with...  



So, one of   Dad's best friends is our Game Warden. Kinda reluctantly, but, I called him and told him the deal. He came right over, of course... and assured me that he wouldn't take it to that vet, that he was going to 'go to higher levels' than that with him.. So, he is gone now. We got a lot of pix, and something we will never see again probably, so it was very cool. Maybe he will make it in captivity somewhere and be appreciated.



So rare... Sure wanted to keep him tho. but, not the thing to do. And not LEGAL either ; But, here are a couple of pix to show ya. He was snow white, pink eyes, ears, nose and hooves. Kids called him POWDER. He was SO small. That is my shoe lying beside him... WOW..how cool is that??

Haven't seen a WHITE one...that's awesome... :D

I caught one a few hours old too once (not white one) the mother ran up a cliffy hill near a road and the baby fell down it into the road...so I took it to our vet who checked it over...then I put it back up on the top of the hill where the momma was looking for it...I sat far away in my car waiting and finally around dust, she went over and got it and off they went...the vet had checked it out and said it had a little neck muscle damage that would heal (like whiplash sort of) from the fall...but other then that, if the momma was around it's best to let momma care for her baby. :) Otherwise he would have let me care for it if I wanted to...he's a wild life vet and has people that could come over to my place and help out...but the momma took the baby back and all was well :)
