RE: Deer attack
I had a deer charge me after I shot it. It hit me in the hip and knocked me down. Then he charged again. I shot him that time and he dropped at my feet. This was in very cover and we were in a small (10 yard maybe) clearing in it.
Last year my mom was charged by a little 5 point buck while she was walking from her car to her office. Her office (timber company) is a small cabin like building in the edge of some timber land and a lake. That was during the rut. She jumped on the porch just in time.
One of my buddies had a big buck charge him after he shot it. It suprized him at charged him from a very close range and would of nailed him but his antlers got caught up in some tree vines giving him time for another shot.
I was working at a summer camp a few years back, and a doe ran over a kid out in a wide open field. The doe tripped and fell on the kid after she hit him and scrammbled to get back up giving him some bruises. Not really an attack, but still.
