White muntjac ?

[Jools]

Chap on one of my local forums has filmed a white? muntjac alongside a normal brown one. Never heard of a white muntjac, anyone else?, or have I been missing something?

Albinos occur in all walks of life sooner or later….. got any pics?

Not brill as screenshot from his post. Taken on the edge of the forest between both of us.

Yeah, odd but not unheard of I’d say. This was a roe (not albino, just pale/gray, but no red eyes, shot locally, they do throw up oddities now and again, always interesting to see!

Have seen muntjac does with white/pale gorget on the throat, never entire body. Truly a rare beast.

Chap shot a white Muntjac in Andover a few years ago

On fb deer page there’s a guy with a black or dark cwd in norfolk

I have shot two muntjac with white rear forelegs, as if they stepped in a tub of emulsion, but I've never seen a full albino

Delightful but one cannot view such a charming critter without thinking he/she is well fooooked, to paraphrase a certain BDS Training Officer!

This is the sort of thing the Daily Mail looses its mind over when they find one has been shot!

I don’t know whether white (Not albinos) fallow are unusual but I’ve shot 2 in the last 12 years in Bedfordshire.
Someone said I should have left them….G keeper said no, shoot any you see, far to easy for travellers to see them when driving the lanes.
