The deer is alive.

No damage above 2'? The deer is a groundhog.

She said it was small, yes. I think it is still alive.

Ethically speaking, you should track that groundhog to see if you need to put it out of its misery. Also, Thanksgiving is near. And do you have enough freezer Space?

Legally speaking, it is unlawful for a non-Law Enforcement Officer to dispatch a road-wounded animal in Pennsylvania. It is also unlawful to keep any animal killed outside of legal hunting regulations. You can't keep your roadkill (maybe actual groundhogs, lol.)
One time I encountered a scene where a young woman had hit a deer, and it was severely injured and laying in the nearby field about 20' off the road, with its head up, looking like it was in shock, unable to get up or move. I was armed, and could have dispatched it, but she had already called 911 and police were on the way. It was difficult to watch it suffer, but I'm not going to get myself legally jacked up over it.

My wife just got home and informed me she hit a deer on the way home. She doesn't know if it is dead or not. I asked what the car looks like, and she said "Oh, I forgot to look at it." LOL.

Here's how it looks:

Completely pointless and a waste of hours of one’s time. Haven’t been able to watch baseball for years, way too long. My opinion of course, to each their own.

Time to come back I guess.....
