Piebald Deer??

[gncc025]

well went out yesterday scouting some deer out for gun season and came across something that looked like a goat at first but it got closer and i saw it was a deer! white with brown spots. ive heard of albino deer but talked to a guy at work and he said it was a piebald deer. anybody know how rare they are or if their illegal to kill?

Piebalds arent that rare, we have quite a few around


I am unaware of any protections on them, but there are in many states with Albinos. This is considered a piebald as it doenst have red eyes etc even though its mainly white
