Used to see a white one around Lake Murray, south of Ardmore. I haven't seen any in this area but we have more than our share of white squirrels around Grove.

Laboratory tree rats,never seen such a thing.

Not sure where you live from me, but this one may be close to you. Just north of Covell and Kelly.

rick, not to far from there. it was between danforth and covell on western. could have easily moved over there. i think there are quite a few in this area. i watched a beautiful 10 pt buck at portland and waterloo a few times. he would have traffic stopped and come within a 100 yds or so. the cars and poeple didn't seem to bother him much. almost like it was his daily routine to show off!

I've never seen one, but I would like to.

Never seen one in all my years deer hunting.
They were protected by the ODW for many years. That protection has been lifted this year and they will be fair game.
Most states encourage taking the white deer from the herd.

Why is taking them encouraged? Is there a genetic defect associated with the white strain? (other than maybe the lack of natural camouflage)

There used to be a great big old white buck out a Camp Gruber. It was quite the legend for a real long time and jokingly referred to as the 'Ghost Deer' due to it's ability to disappear right after having been seen. No ones seen it in quite a few years now though, so folks figure it finally died.

I've seen one white deer. That must have been twenty five years ago at Callaway Gardens in Pine Mountain, GA. I grew up nearby and saw the deer while driving through with my family.
