In Cedar Springs, Michigan, a fawn unlike all the others was born. White face, blue eyes, pink nose. His brother had the usual brown coat, but he did not. And that was enough for his own mother to reject him as soon as he was born.
His name is Dragon, and he has piebaldism, a genetic condition that affects less than 1% of white-tailed deer worldwide. Hilary Powell, owner of the Deer Tracks Junction farm, took him into her own home and bottle-fed him night after night until he could stand on his own.
Nature left him out for being different. Hilary decided that would not define his fate.
