Photography > Albino White-tailed Deer

Albino Deer or "White Deer" are a very rare breed of White-tailed Deer in Northern Wisconsin. There are only 200 to 300 Albinos in the entire state of Wisconsin. We are very lucky to live near a State Forest and lots of private land. Albinos are protected in Northern Wisconsin and can not be hunted.

When we first moved here in 1994 we would only see a couple of Albinos every now and then. I built a Food plot to attract deer and now there are 4 Albinos living on our land and another 20 or 25 within 2 or 3 miles.

They live with the brown whitetails but do not like them. The Albinos are a lot more aggressive and will fight the brown whitetails to chase them away. They do interbreed and have both white and brown fawns. We love all the deer but when an Albino comes into sight you do not even notice the brown deer. They are truly one of God's most beautiful and rare animals.
