Albino deer and white deer

Albino deer are deer born with no pigment. This rare occurance happens about 1 in 75,000 in whitetail deer. A true Albino is all white with pink eyes,nose, and hooves. Often times white deer are mistaken for Albinos. White deer have dark eyes and appear like other deer except all of their fur is white. Mellanistic deer have all black fur and are even more rare than albinos.
