I had an elk do that over the hood of my truck. The road was on a hill so one side was cut about 8 feet so it was an easy enough jump for him but certainly startling for me.

Since we are discussing Cervidaes on FR, somebody has to say that a moose once bit my sister" Let it be me that says it.

My little brother and a friend were going camping and took off early in the morning. Before they got two miles down the road to LBL, a young buck leaped across their path, smashed into the windshield and broke it’s neck dead.
They were just 17 and it scared them sh_tless. Needlessly to say their trip was postponed.

On the road I live on was coming home about 20 MPH and saw deer on left side. Slowed down to let him pass, guess he thought I was blocking him. Next thing I know he’s gone but my rooftop antenna is going twang. Checked my car no damage, must have made it all the way over and clipped my antenna.
