Shadow

You are a rare melanistic white-tailed deer buck with a firm muscular build. last spring you fought a rival male for a group of females and this spring you remain their leader. You all are grazing in a valley when a sharp crack of a sniper rings through the air like a explosion and you and your herd dart into the cover of the trees and off into the forest. a hunter steps out of the treeline looking down at his prize, a rare piebald doe. your lucky he didn't see you first or he would have rather shot you. you and your herd survive another day but with a loss. now the hunter knows about you and its hunting season he will follow your herd over the next few days hoping to get a good shot at you and claim you also. be careful. enjoy!
