I recently put a picture of a buck that I believe is palmate. ( http://www.tndeer.com/tndeertalk/ubbthr ... ost2853412)
I got this picture on a farm I hunt and not 2 miles away is a guy that has some fallow deer. Fallow deer have the palamte trait. While reading up on the palamted "defect" I found one cause is interbreeding of species. But then I read these two will not interbreed. Does anyone know for sure? What is the law if you come up on a exotic that is on the lam? Just rare that you see this, and then when you throw in there are fallow close by, makes you wonder.
