It can happen around late December every year.

Amazingly, yes they do!
When the jets fly low through the mountains up here,
apparently the deer are mesmerized by the sound, and leap high into the air.
They usually don't make it into the engines, but they sure give it a try.

They have much more success making it into the engines of cars, via the radiators.
