So many deer listed here. Thankfully I’ve never hit one but it doesn’t surprise

me. I was driving in American Fork Canyon the other day and one was right in front of me on the road. I was going slow enough that I was able to see it and stop. But it was so scared it jumped back and forth in the road not sure which way to go. If I hadn’t been able to stop I would have hit it for sure.
