foxhunter Posted June 5, 2009 Report Share Posted June 5, 2009 I was out for a walk last night and discovered this light coloured roe kid . Its coat was a lot lighter than normal roe kids and it didnt have the usual black around its eyes or a black nose. Just wondering if it will turn into a very light coloured individual ??? Any comments from other stalkers, what do you think ??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteL Posted June 5, 2009 Report Share Posted June 5, 2009 What a spendid little fawn and well done for spotting it. Albinism in Roe is uncommon as it is in most mammals although there are a few cases mentioned by Tegner in "The Roe Deer" neither Frank Holmes or de Nahlik appear to mention it. As 308P said it would be a good thing to keep tabs on it. I'm sure that it will grow up with a light coloured coat. Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
