I can't help but wonder how that rider is going to feel the next day. He's really lucky he wasn't cut by a hoof or antler.
re rutting season, I suspect you are right on that one. And yes they certainly did see it before didnt they.
scary video thats for sure, but the fact that he was up at the end hopefully means he was generally okay (ish....)
