I hit a deer when I was a kid on a dirt bike. Didn't get hurt really and just messed the headlight up on the bike. The deer I think was OK too, it got up dazed and walked in circles for a couple minutes then ran off.
My grandfathers world record black bear was shot and fell on the other side of a huge fallen tree. When my grandfather got to the tree it stood up and roared. He had the presence of mind to just stick the gun to it's shoulder and fire to drop it again. I have the skull downstairs here. The bullet went in the nose and out the jaw on one side braking the back of the jaw away. That was the first shot and must have just knocked him stupid for a few minutes.
The bear would have measured even bigger than it did but the taxidermist boiled the skull instead of using insects to clean it so it shrunk some.
I learned all I need to know about life by killing smart people and eating their brains. Eat right ,Exercise ,Stay fit, Die Anyway!
