I have a friend who hit a horse that rolled over the hood of her car and came through her windshield (a big freaking horse at that)!

I once had a deer’s head in my passenger seat. Worst garage sale purchase of my life!

Occasionally I feel like my head and heart are going in different directions...

I hit a cow once. There were snowbanks and the critter had gone over the fence. I was only going around 20 mph. The car spun and the front smashed in. The cow fell down, got up and walked back into the field. I called the rancher and told him. He could never identify which cow had been hit, but my car was a mess.

The worst deer collision photo set I've ever seen was this one, of a fairly new Dodge Durango:

That's the least graphic photo in the set - the passenger side pic shows all the guts. Weird, though - not a scratch on the Dodge's grille, bumper or headlights. The deer must've been hit mid-leap.

All the more to buy a small car, more exciting and you may not live so long. Emiting all that awful CO2 And drinking that horrible H2O!!!

“If you can keep your head when all about you are losing theirs...”

But, seriously, it would be a shame not to have the head mounted since she practically willed it to happen.

Same exact accident happened to me about a month ago although the deer was hit by the car in the opposite lane about 30 feet in front of me then launched 10’ feet up into the air somersualting over the top of my car to land behind me in the middle of the road.

Somebody was looking out for him. Gee, wonder who that could be.
