Humph!

I always suspected there was more to their windshield diving then accident.

Now we know, the deer are out for BLOOD. Human blood!

(Or bones at least.)

What I'd love to see is the deer community produce a film called The Man Hunter, in which one of the characters loses his way and ends up dying in a game of Russian Roullete.

Yep, this is an old story. Deer and other herbavores gnaw on bones, antler sheds, etc., for minerals. It’s called OSTEOPHAGY.

“Bad To The Bone”

On the day that I died
The whitetails all gathered ‘round
And they grazed in wide wonder
At the joy they had found
The head buck spoke up
Said “leave this one alone”
He could tell right away
That I was bad to the bone
