A white hind, possibly suffering from leucism, was seen at Coire Ba during the reign of King James the VI and I. Such stags feature in Celtic mythology and Arthurian legend and the king requested the animal be captured and brought to him. John Scandoner sent to capture the beast, in difficult weather, saw the animal in early 1622 but was unable to capture it for the king.
