Huh?  That’s correct.  A BLACK Whitetail.

OK, this animal has a condition named melanism.  Melanism is the opposite of albinism.  Where albinism is a condition where the animals has less pigmentation,  melanism is an condition where the animal has excess pigmentation or melanin.

Here are some posts of some beautiful albino animals including twin deer.

    Too bad it was killed, a very beautiful animal. Would love to see more of them running around.
