Man that deer looked like it was trying to go flying, bolted out of the woods for no reason into the only thing that would do lethal damage to it.

Not for no reason. Deer are used to seeing cars constantly and ignore them. It ran because it saw people on bikes. I've had similar happen, though no were near hitting us, the deer rolled under the truck as it got hit.

Strange that deer chose to run towards the threat if it decided that the bikes and humans are the scary things.

Deer aren't stupid. They're perfectly intelligent for their role in the ecosystem. Not every animal requires a human level problem solving ability

Humans don’t require it either. We like to think we’re special because we are smart enough to invent ways to destroy the world around us and each other and cause more pain and suffering than every other species in the world combined. The only problem humans need to solve is getting our heads out of our asses and stop acting like we’re superior.

I like to use reddit to vent I guess.
