On November 22, the last day
of Pennsylvania's bear season,
ia 5-point albino buck deer was
unlawfully killed near Eagles
Mere, Sullivan County. The
rare animal had been shot thru
the head by a rifle in the hands
of an unknown hunter. It is not
conceivable that the all white
deer could have been shot in
i mistake for a black bear. It is
hoped that this ghost of deer
will forever haunt the Killer

and reported it to Game Protec-
