According to Wikipedia, " A white stag (or white hind for the female) is a white-colored red deer or fallow deer , explained by a condition known as leucism that causes its hair and skin to lose its natural colour. The white deer has played a prominent role in many cultures' mythology. The colour white has long been associated with purity; and in Celtic culture , the colour also represented the otherworld. [1] In modern society, people have acted to protect the white stag as a vestige of beauty, and the hunting of the white stag has often been met with anger, because of its rare and elusive nature. [8] [9] For early man, the deer represented a valuable resource, providing nourishment, clothing and other accessories; and the deer may have played a role in totemic culture. [1] "
