White Deer

White 'Dama Dama' deer roam about the fenced in Argonne National Laboratory site in Lemont IL. The land originally belonged to a rich game rancher. When the land was bought by the government for energy research one pair of deer was unintentionally left behind by the rancher. Today over 300 deer roam the site.
