One tough deer

Statistics say 1.5 million cars hit a deer every year.

I have two deer about a year apart to my credit. Same corner of the car and the repair bill was within $15 the second time. My son hit one with a semi and it wound around the axles and between the dual wheels on the tractor. Took him and another guy 3 hours to get the mess out of there and they looked like they were the ones hit by the truck. No taking that one home for supper.

Man! That IS one tough deer! Not only is it getting hit 1,500,000 times every year, but it apparently makes it's lonesome way around the entire US! :-)

I seen a deer get hit one time, it went about 15' in the air, flipped a bunch of times, landed, got up and ran into the woods. I'm pretty sure it died sometime later after a hit like that. The best part was the people stopping and running into the woods to help the deer. And no I'm pretty sure from the looks of the people they werent looking to take the deer home.

A side note, a police officer was killed by a deer in a neighboring town when his cruiser struck a deer. The dispatchers couldnt raise him on the radio for awhile and a trucker seen his lights off in the woods. The whole thing was recorded on his dashcam.

A good friend of mine is a retired locomotive engineer. More than once they exploded a cow on the front of the locomotive. Cows want to run with the tracks and not off to a right angle.

In 42 years way more people than cows got in his way. His tally was 19 people being stupid enough to be on the tracks, racing to a crossing, or committing suicide.

My wife killed three with one hit from her TransAm. She was racing me home from the bar, doing about 90 when a pregnant doe ran out in front of her car. $3900 damage to the car and a dead doe and two dead fawns. She doesn't know about the fawns and I'm not telling her.
