Each year, an estimated 1.5 million deer-vehicle collisions kill several hundred people, injure tens of thousands more and cause more than $1 billion in vehicle damage.

The number of fatalities has risen 50% since 2000. In 1993, 101 people died in crashes involving animals. By 2000, the number was 150, and in 2007 it was 223.



We better kill these bass turds now before they kill us!   :o   Besides, who doesn't enjoy some backstrap or tenderloins?   ;)

Had he been using a 7mm Rem Mag that deer would have never gotten up off the ground.  He would have been dead for real, not to mention it wouldn't have taken two shots.

A 22 mag will bring down a deer, if you place the shot right.  I think he need to put on his glasses before shooting.

Haha, used to chase them in my old CJ.  That all ended when I hit a ditch that was a little worst than I thought.  Limped 10 miles back to town in 1st gear. I couldn't get them to run out in front of me in the CJ, but I couldn't keep them from in front of the cobra.  Good 'ol Illinois corn fed deer too.
