Where was this?

These deer are located at the Old Seneca Army Depot in Romulus New York. You can google them.This is a rare herd of about 300 white deer.There is a fence around the whole thing, but they do get out and wander. I had a deer on my property 2 years ago, which is about 8 miles from there. If you are a retired Veteran or in the Military, I believe you can apply for a special hunt there.

yep that's where he was. I saw a nice 5 point that was missing both brow tines that I didn't take a pic of. Saw about a dozen white deer.

I have driven past the Sampson Army Depot twice in my life and never saw any of the white deer . Bummer !

If you drive by with less than an hour before dark you should see several white deer. I've never not seen white deer when I've gone by.

Most of the white deer for some reason are missing their brow tines. I had a uncle who worked on the Depot and was lucky enough to shoot a white buck. When you get the chance to hunt, you not only have to be selected, but then they do a selection to see who gets to shot a white doe, white buck, or brown doe or brown buck. What would suck if you had a chance to hunt there and could only shoot a brown buck and a white buck walked by

A few of these white critters have escaped and I've seen two white bucks outside the fence. I'm sure that most of the locals will be after them and I'm not going to advertise where I've seen them.

Best time to see thm is after leaves come off anf before the snow.....or if you aren't interested in seeing horns.....the spring after the melt. They stick out like a sore thumb

I live right next to the depot and have seen white deer in my backyard, but I have also seen them miles from here.  They get out all the time and wander quite some distance.

I bet that would look great on the hood of my car.

As long as you were not doing 60 mph when it got there.

If you get selected to hunt the depot its any deer, I know because i have went threw the process. im on the list for next year. Ur also allowed to bring one other person with you. they give you a certain area to hunt. A friend of mine shot a 9 point white buck, after passing up 18 others. there everywhere on there.
