Car vs. Deer

According to the Press Democrat, it's "Car vs. Deer" season. Last night heading home on River Road we saw an injured deer on the side of the road trying to stand up. It looked like it had just been hit, and there was a suspect car with its hazards on 500 feet ahead. We called 911 and gave the location of the deer and made sure to tell them it was still alive - they took down the info and said thanks. This morning on my way to work, there it was - dead. The time for it to manifest had passed. I tried not to, but I still suffered.
