Black Buck

March 31, 2008


Who’s got information on this deer picture? I can’t find anything on Snopes but I didn’t spend a lot of time looking around. Of course we all know there are such things as black deer, I believe they are called melanistic. The email I got with this photo in it says it was in Michigan.

I remember a year or so ago, a good-sized black buck was taken in Pennsylvania.
