Crazy looking Deer
« on: December 11, 2025, 07:43:03 PM »
Anybody ever see one of these before? I have seen Piebald Deer before, but this was running down the road by my house today. Look at the tail on that rascal!

Yep, seen a few like that before. Used to be few area around that would have them with that much white fairly regularly. Don't see them near as m7ch as I used to.

Seen one in Cowichie that was similar... Was a small 3 point 15+ years ago... Blended in with the snow great and couldn't get a shot after I saw he was legal...
I love you... I really do...

I have seen a bunch of Piebald Deer over the years, but I have never in my life seen a Mule Deer run with a bushy white tail in the flag position and super short front legs. Something was definitely going on with this Deer besides the Piebald coat.

Yeah she is really short up front... Didn't really notice that at first look... There is a lot going on with her... Think it's a dwarf benchleg cause how bushy the tail is? BT do flag like a WT... Or farther east and a WT cross? I don't know what area you were in...
I love you... I really do...

Used to see quite a few with that coloring in Cle Elum. None of them had tails like that

My guess is its just a Whitey, quite a few showing up in your area, and central WA.

Its not a Whitetail, could be a cross. If anything I would guess blacktail cross, I see both around here. I think like Fletch said, it has some "factory defects".
