Deer vs. woman

A woman called a deer and tried to pet it, but the deer lowered its head and charged her instead, according to the Colorado Division of Wildlife.

Yet another reason to carry a loaded handgun.

So the deer can overpower you, take your gun, and shoot you with it?

This question implies that I would not be willing to shoot the deer.

Elizabeth said...

No, no, hence the use of the word "overpower": you tried to shoot the deer, but failed, because it was just too fast.

Orthoclase said...

Faster than a speeding bullet?

That is quite a deer!

Maybe you are thinking of SuperDeer?

Digging the gun out of your pocket takes time, too.

When I was 10 years old, sitting all alone in the woods, why didn't they take my bow away from me?

I have always wondered that.
