Albino whitetail deer fawn

[Lee Borgersen]

I just got this sent to me in an e-mail.

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 Momma 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 we're going to send him to a Rehab farm. 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??

WOW...  We found a fawn this past summer that was barily days old.  It couldn't even stand without falling.  No mom in site...  We left it alone after a few pictures and a few hours later it was gone.  Momma came back and got him/her.

My parents neighbor in Isanti had a Albino doe come by his stand 2-3 years ago.  He let it go by, and no one has ever seen it again.  He hunts in the same spot (by the Rum River) every year.  He thought it was the neatest thing he has ever seen!
