Why would it be illegal to harvest an animal if the color is diferent? Just curious if you know the reasoning behind that. I would much rather see someone take that animal while hunting, maybe mount it and preserve it than to have if die of natural causes never to be seen again, or worse to have it be hit by a care and mangeled to a point were no one can enjoy it.

Is that under the catagory of one othe the states dumb laws. :-k

DeadI, I have no idea why they saw fit to make it a law. I even did a little bit of readin' on it to see if I could find out but couldn't find a thing.

Native Americans view albino animals as sacred. Do a search on "White Buffalo Woman" for a glimpse into that spritual belief.

I have no idea why it's illegal to hunt them but several states do have regs addressing that. Even piebald (sorta spotted)animals are protected in some areas.

I'll look around and see if I can find any logical reason!

Mark, I thought the same thing as far as the Native American beliefs but can find nothing in writting indicating that this is why it's illegal. I'll keep lookin' too but it just be as simple as that.
