That is not a Piebald, sorry. That deer has the lice that cause hair problems.

thats what I thought too because you can see what looks like wavy hair. I dont know about the hides or anything I have just never seen anything like that,, at first I figured it was just mangy like so many deer get

That is the hair slip disease that has plagued the west side since 1996.

Great pics, I'm 100% positive it's not a piebald aka pinto, used to have them around the house and seen a ton on the oregon coast. See the difference........

ok I have a question... not trying to jack the thread or anything but how would the meat of these animals be if they had the "hair loss syndrome", ticks or the mange? You would think it would be ok but they could also spead some funky disease..

Your mangy little blacktail looks like a few I have had come in for me. A few guys suggested a combination of louse, over grooming, and winter. I've got a few that have seemed to thin out a bit and grow back as we get into warmer weather.

Damn those are some cool looking bucks!
Well shoot I dont want any deer leprosy but thats a good question CamoDup, I dont know if the disease would be under the skin affecting the meat or not.. Probably would have to be real careful skinning it
