Seneca white deer

When the 10,600-acre (43 km2) depot was created in 1941, a 24-mile (39 km) fence was erected around its perimeter, isolating a small herd of white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus), some of which had white coats.

The visibility of white deer makes them easy prey for hunters and natural enemies like coyotes, and such a herd would not survive in the wild [citation needed].

The Five Points maximum security state prison was built on the eastern rim, and the former barracks on the northern tip was converted into housing for troubled teenagers.

Plans to buy 4,700 acres (1,900 ha) of land to build an ethanol and biofuel electricity production center and to plant crops of willow trees and switch grass to be converted into fuel was proposed.

[3][10] In 2016, the 7,000 acres (2,800 ha) property was sold to local businessman Earl Martin of Seneca Iron Works for $900,000 and established as Deer Haven Park, LLC.
