Yes, they get one or two muleys almost every night along here. It was strange in an interesting way to have an eagle hanging around here for several days. Normally they are away from the highway. In that previous plot there is a spring about in the middle of that north twenty where a very large buck hangs with 15-20 of his group.

The virgin river is about 100 yards east and they all come down at night to water, cross the highway “deer in the headlights” and BAM. In 15 years I have only hit two.

After a certain age, you learn which roads are more prone to deer crossings, where they usually cross and what time they cross.
But slowing down your vehicle cruising speed on those known roads is the best advice.
Most military members soon learn that on rural roads, especially at sunset or just after, and then again between 4 am and sunrise, to be on the lookout for those swift and stealthy critters.
