Odocoileus virginianus
These white individuals occur in unusually high proportion on a former military base in New York state - Their numbers on this reserve increased due to artificial selection brought about by hunting normal color phase individuals and protecting white color morphs. Not a true albino.

EDITORS COMMENTS
Snowy Serendipity: A Rare Encounter in the Winter Wonderland". In this photo print, we are transported to a magical winter scene in New York's woodlands. Amidst the glistening snow, a doe and her fawn gracefully prance through the white wonderland. But what makes this sighting truly extraordinary is their strikingly unique appearance. Meet the White-tailed Deer duo - an enchanting white color phase resulting from double recessive white genes. These ethereal creatures occur rarely in nature, but on a former military base in New York state, they thrive in unusually high numbers thanks to artificial selection brought about by hunting normal color phase individuals and protecting these mesmerizing white morphs. Don't be mistaken though; these beauties are not true albinos. Their snowy coats are simply an abnormality that adds to their allure. As if painted by Mother Nature herself, their presence against the wintry backdrop creates a picture-perfect moment frozen in time. Photographer John Cancalosi has masterfully captured this rare encounter between mother and young with his lens. The image evokes feelings of awe and wonder as we witness nature's unexpected surprises unfold before our eyes. So let your imagination wander into this whimsical realm where deer dance on ice-covered meadows and dreams come alive amidst blankets of snow. Let this remarkable photograph remind us that sometimes, it's those unexpected encounters that leave us breathless with joy.
