I guess it makes sense. Who among us has
not seen a deer crossing the road and thought to themselves, "You know what, I'm gonna hit that deer with my car and keep the damn meat for myself! If I can just time this right ..."
The only problem is that it's not that easy to deliberately hit a deer with your car, those deer have some really fancy footwork, and are agile enough to jump over 10 foot tall fences.
