The deer's revenge

Last night we decided to go grocery shopping.   On the way, the driver in front of us was struck by a deer. The deer ran into her and was flung to the other side of the road.  We stopped to be sure the driver was okay.  The lady driving was about 35 years old and didn't seem fazed that her car was all dented and there was a half-dead buck 20 feet away.

A park ranger, on his way home from work, stopped to help.  And a man in a large white truck also stopped, but he seemed more interested in the deer than the accident.  Hubby thinks he was on the ridge spotting the deer, which caused it to run into the road in the first place.  After a few minutes we left the driver with the park ranger while they awaited the police.

You may be thinking, "Where does the revenge part come in"?  Well, the driver of the car had just come from her boyfriends company-a deer processing plant.  They cut up and package the animals that hunters bring in.
