I was surprised how little it was dented in overall. I've seen other cars look demolished from the same kind of hit.

I'm always surprised, when I hear animals that big, get hit. Were there any other cars on the road? I live in a concrete jungle, so the biggest we got are raccoons...

Deer are so fast and so unpredictable that insurance companies cover damage by them under comprehensive, not collision.

The peak of the rut (or mating season) is just starting now, and as a result the deer are extremely active and more interested in finding or avoiding a sexual partner than they are in staying out of the path of oncoming traffic. Time to slow down and be extra vigilant, especially at dusk and dawn.
