I've seen what a supposedly dead deer can do when it wakes up in the back seat of a car that my Buddy;s girlfriend(she's a redneck) dragged into the car for her dad after she hit it and thought it was dead.It broke the back windshield out cut the seats to shreds kicked one of the side windows out and broke off a door handle.She arrived screaming at her house and dad came out and promptly dispatched it with a pistol and then cussed her a blue streak for being stupid.That cop should thank God for protecting stupid people.If that deer "woke up" while he had a hold of it I can think of a couple appendages he might have lost.
