I assume the deer died but it took off when the officer was going to put it down so who knows. It went down in the road, jumped up and ran about 100 feet when a car traveling in the other direction almost hit it, fell down again and laid in that spot for 3 or 4 minutes, got up and ran another 150 yards and laid there for 20 minutes, and jumped up and ran off when the officer approached it. The way it flailed around trying to get out of the road I can't believe it went too far.
