So, this may be an off color story, but it is relevant-
This happened to a mother of a friend of mine. She was driving alone at night and hit a large deer at a pretty high speed. Spun the car into a ditch. She was OK but a little beat up and pretty shaken. A passer by immediately called 911 when they saw the wreck, and a police officer showed up right away. After the officer got her out of the car and made sure she was OK, he went over to the deer which was alive but laying in the ditch. He put 2 rounds in the side of the animal's head to put it out of it's misery. Unfortunately the woman who had just had the worst auto accident of her life got to watch this happen right in front of her!
I laughed a lot the first time I heard the story, but then thought about what that must have been like for her..
Living around here, I have a lot of close calls with deer, probably have to evade one 2 or 3 times a season.
