LAMPASAS TX -
Imagine driving down the street when suddenly, a deer leaps through a window into your car!
That's exactly what happened to a woman in Lampasas this morning at 3rd and Porter.
She had just dropped her children off at school and was driving down the street
when the deer made its grand entrance.

She’s lucky. It looks like it broke it’s neck in the process. If one jumps in your vehicle and is uninjured, it will chop the bejeezus out of you with those hooves.

This is the kind of excuse one gives when one gets caught poaching.

It look like the deer made an entrance and exit at the same time.

Lampasas - is where I shot my two deer. The joke back then when they shortened deer season, you hunt, you shoot, you take the deer out into the road and run over its leg, call the game warden tell him you hit it and shot it to put it out of pain.

At least it went in the back seat. I had a bird fly in the driver’s window at about 50mph and it stung when it hit my left ear!

Squirrels have better sense about cars than deer.

Wednesday night a friend of mine who commutes by bike into DC every day hit a deer on his way home. Broken ribs, fractured elbow, bruised spleen, road rash all over. He said he’s lucky, though, because he wasn’t kicked as he and Bambi rolled together on the asphalt. Apparently a panicked deer can cause some horrific injuries with their hooves.

I’m sure there are some poachers who have tried that same line...

OK, I can’t figure out how the deer ended up with it’s head in that position. It looks to have gone in the drivers side rear window, but wouldn't the forward motion of the vehicle put the deer further back?

Deer hate us and hunt us relentlessly, they kill more Americans than any other animal.

Deer will literally leap through our windshields to get at the humans inside of an automobile.

My brother-in-law and his motorcycle passenger struck at a speed of 45MPH a road-crossing cow in Camp Verde. They were ejected from the abruptly stopped bike, which was totaled. The cow mooed and continued on its way.

There must be a lot of suicidal deer in Texas. We killed 3 deer with our truck one year. They just jumped into the headlights and I saw them for maybe 1/4 second before whomping them.

After hitting one with my truck, I found that my insurance company calls them "kamikaze deer".

Either that’s a photoshop job by a real sicko, or the deer is queer.
