A young woman hit a deer and tore her car up pretty bad, she was able to drive it into our drive way and my hubby went down to the car and got her to come inside to use the phone.  She was shaking so bad and then when she called her husband she just started crying.  I felt so bad for her.  We took her up the road to her mother's house.  She was on the way up there to pick up her kids.  Her husband came by soon after to check the car out and then they've already had a wrecker pick it up.  We looked and looked for the deer, because I'm sure he/she is injured and needs to be put out of his misery, but there is no sign of  him.  I hate stuff like this but it surely is a common occurrance in my rural area.  Coming home from work one night, I counted 16 deer, grazing beside the road, all in small sets of 2 and 3 at the time.  I was a nervous wreck by the time I got home.

And yes, I've hit a deer myself.  Or rather the deer hit my rear passenger door, but he didn't do THIS much damage.

I didn't see one drop of blood on that car, nor any deer hair either.  But I think what will have to be washed off of it, is a whole lot nastier than blood.

  Yuck.

Holy sh*t! Sorry....couldn't resist. Glad she's okay.

I usually just hit cement walls with my car, way less blood.

I do hope they find the deer, car accidents are sooo scary. I can't believe it's been 2 weeks since mine but I still get nervous getting in the car now.

ew. That deer probably ran off badly hurt which is bad but sometimes you just can't avoid them.  There's used to be tons of them in PA when I lived there and also when I was driving rural road at night up near Kennesaw, Georgia.  It's scary.  Mostly around here now people hit possums, raccoons and armadillos.  And squirrels...I hit a poor little squirrel a couple weeks ago...I felt so bad but there was no way to avoid him.  I think he died instantly.
