Things that go BUMP in the night
You are driving at night on a dark, windy back road. Its been snowing, so the roads are quite slippery. Every now and again, you feel your car starting to slide, but you manage to stay on the road. You look out into the woods; The woods are lovely, dark and deep, But you have promises to keep, And miles to go before you sleep, And miles to go before you sleep...
BAM!!! CRASH!!! BOOM!!!
You touch your face, your arms, your legs... Yes, you're still alive. But what happened? Upon stepping out of your car, you see the culprit:
A deer jumped out in front of your car. Stupid deer. Its a big one too-- A TEN point buck. He's still faintly alive though. He's wimpering and looking at you with eyes full of pity.
What do you do with it?
A. Reverse your car, then put it in drive, speed up, and hit it again-- best put it out of its misery.
B. Dial 911-- maybe they can get an ambulance to come and save the deer's life.
C. Call your buddies over-- they LOVE some good deer meat (yum, venison!)
D. Cut its head off, then get it mounted to hang on your wall at home-- how often does someone get a ten point buck!
E. Drive away and pretend like nothing happened.
[I am sorry for those of you who do not have snow or a plethera of deer around your areas. And in case you dont know: ten point deer means that its antlers have ten little sprout things.]

I would put the deer in the car, nurse it back to health and then eat it. No sense in eating a sick deer.
hahaha- Casually me, you crack me up!
actually, everyone, i hate deer meat, so i definitely would NOT butcher it. And i think its grotesque to hang animal heads on your wall as some sort of trophy.
In general, i hate deer. Not hate-- i just dont think there's anything special about them. PA is full of deer. you see them everywhere. So, when people stop their cars to look at the deer out in the woods and Oohh and Aahh over them, i just roll my eyes. WHATS THE BIG DEAL! a deer is a deer. Nothing special
In all honesty, I think I'd just drive away.
By law, what are you supposed to do? I don't think you're supposed to just leave a deer there. Are you supposed to call PennDOT? (Dept. of transportation)
I'm always scared of hitting a deer. Does that slow me down? Nah.
This sounds pointless, but I'd move it to the side off the road so another car wouldn't hit it again....actually maybe I'd be scared to move it thinking of the possibility that it had rabies.
I've seen people call animal rescue for similar cases and only in america will they revive a racoon with cpr!
i ahet to tell you, but if you hit a 10-point buck, you ain't just gonna be driving away...you'll be towed away
