Default Deer Licked My Car Clean

Anyone ever have deer lick the salt off of your car in the winter? It happened to me a few days ago and left my car covered in 3-4" lick marks. I didnt have the digital camera along when I went home for the holidays, so no pictures unfortunately.

Nope, never heard of a car being licked but it Ã*s not unusual to see deer flocking together at the roads if there is plenty of snow. Salt on the road is less frequently used here now but itis known toattractgame making winter roads more unsafe.

I saw adocumentary on bighorn sheep in the Rockies that
would come up to cars and lick them clean like you describe.
People would drive up there just to see them surround the vehicle
and do there thing.

It saves me from having to go out and do it myself.

WOW Ive had cows lick my truck all over (which can scratch it) but never deer ... that kind of puts a new meaning to a " spit shine"!
