Seven deer -- including six huddled in a circle -- were found apparently killed by lightning in a southern Wisconsin farm field, neighbors and authorities said Tuesday.
The deer were likely killed Sunday night, said neighbor Randy Lantz, 54.
“It’s bizarre,” Lantz said.
After neighbors found the deer Monday and called authorities, a Kenosha County Sheriff's deputy on Tuesday went out to the rural field located near Salem, Wis., about 5 miles from the Illinois border, and found the six dead deer lying in a circle with another one a distance away.
In the center of the group of six there was a hole about 5 inches deep and 5 inches across, said Sgt. Bill Beth of the Kenosha County Sheriff's Department.

Once we had cattle walking along a fence when the fence was struck somewhere along the way and it killed 3 cows.
My cousin and her husband lost their best bull to lightening. It was standing under the only tree in the pasture and bam. They had to dig a hole with the bulldozer to bury it.
