I just saw a car cream a deer on I 79 n at the 123. It lookes like chillie when she got done with it @ 75 mph. Nothing was left. Imagine what that would do to a biker. A few killed by deer earlier in ohio this year. Bikers that is.

My sister that works for the US Forest Service just sent me this.....

From our law enforcement reports. Eeeewww!

On 6/26, an LEO on the Northern Hills RD responded to a motorcycle versus deer accident. The man operating the large cruiser style motorcycle was not wearing a helmet or appropriate safety gear at the time of the accident. When struck by the motorcycle, the deer’s stomach burst and spewed internal organs over the motorcyclist. As a result, it appeared the man was severely injured. After first responders determined the man suffered only a broken foot he was transported via ground ambulance to a hospital. The incident was referred to the South Dakota HP.
