Charles Howard, the owner of the famous Seabiscut was friends with William Hearst, who had a collection of the European white fallow deer at his private zoo in San Simeon. In 1949, Howard purchased 53 of them and brought them to his Ridgewood Ranch, (The Seabiscut Ranch).
I don’t have an expensive camera but I was finally able to sneak up on this herd of white deer. The White Fallow deer are unique and have very distinct coloration that is not albino but a true white coat pattern. The Seneca white deer carry a set of recessive genes for all-white coats.
Does anyone know if the Seneca white deer and the White Fallow deer are the same, if not, what’s the difference between the two? :shrug:
