WEIRD DEER
Check out some of the other strange predicaments that deer have gotten themselves into. Most of the time bucks get credit for being bruisers and duking it out with other deer, but does often go head to head as well. Like these two deer for example. Photo: Outdoors Weekly

This deer broke into a restaurant in Wisconsin. Oddly enough, patrons of the restaurant were watching a Milwaukee Bucks game at the time of the break in.

I would hate to be the deer on the receiving end of this kick.

This photo was taken on Rabbit Creek in northwest South Dakota. The deer are floating across the river on a mini iceberg.

Apparently, those deer weren't the only ones who thought riding and iceberg was a good way to cross a stream.
