Originally here in NY we had the Northern White Tail .At a time when deer in the state were greatly reduced ,Virginia White Tails were intoduced. So we often have Northern/Virginia cross. It's probably like the PA, NY study recently that showed that 20 % of the coyotes have wolf genes ! That's what causes the 70 lb coyotes we see in the east.
I wish I had weighed my largest Sullivan Co deer ,it must have been at least 200 lbs live weight .I got steaks from the shoulder.
