Killer Deer On Campus

Yes, you read the title right. At an Illinois school, a deer attacked three students. A doe. They had to be treated for injuries. Did the deer bite them? They just talked about it on the local news, so I have no idea if it's online yet.

An actual quote from one student. "I'm gonna be very alert for any deer now. I prefer to watch the squirrels. Safer."

Pardon me while I die laughing. :D

Doe... a deer...

Safer to watch the squirrels? Obviously, they haven't tried this (http://www.compfused.com/directlink/732/).

In our state, they're one of the leading causes of death. But that's usually from car accidents, not attacks! And the deer mortality is much, much higher. Even on my short commute, I've seen three dead fawns this week.
