My friend pointed out a Times article today. In brief:

AN exceptionally rare white deer nicknamed “Pearl” has been discovered in the Scottish lowlands by a professional hunter, who is now taking bids from people who want to kill it.

The funny thing about this article comes about half way down when the Times quote the farmer who owns the area:

Bartle said he was now keen to shoot the animal: “I’ve got two dates hopefully lined up next month. It needs culling – it’s a freak.”

That’s right folks - it’s a FREAK.
