It can feel a bit dramatic when they’re there literally a deer in your headlights, and you’re on a dark, icy road in the backwoods, doing 80kph.
And the motherfucker won’t move.
The only thing to do is to try to dodge them from whichever way they’re coming from.
And sometimes, it’s not a 60kg deer, but a 500kg moose. And them mofos are almost as stupid, twice as stubborn and also have an aggressive mode. (Albeit it’s kinda rare.)
No no, they have two responses, flight and freeze.
If they only had flight they’d be somewhat more predictable. As it is, you can’t trust them to even move when needed.
And I agree that venison is fucking delicious. Love me some venison mince ragu, get rosemary in the meat. Mmm.
I suppose that’s fair, freeze wasn’t dramatic enough for me to consider that.
