At least that's what it is after you've hit it. We've got a lot of wild life that like the proverbial chicken likes to cross the road. Be ready to brake, swerve or squish...but beware, deer don't squish so easy and the Red Cockaded Wood Pecker could get you a fine because he and some of his other buddies are protected. Did I mention the little signs on the trees to let you know wood peckers live in the area and that you are not to disturb them? I better add that to the local customs page!

It is actually LEGAL FOR HUNTERS TO SHOOT ACROSS THE ROAD. Just hope a deer does not choose an inoportune time to show himself, like for instance when you are driving between him and the fella with the gun!
