ive been hit by a small bodied spike buck behind the left front tire, over $3000 damage
took a large bodied spike buck square in the drivers headlight of a 2000 passat @60+ mph (technically totaled the car)
direct hit to the windshield by an owl in my old company truck, no damage
multiple small birds to the bumper and grill
multiple small 4-leggers
in my old s10 i had to straddle a dead armadillo in the middle of my lane, busted it open on a crossmember
in my current s10 i hit a dead opposum in the road. thought i could clear it, but allas, i could not.

also pancaked a dead dog in the road with an International 4300 DT466

my ex old lady hit a small doe while in my tahoe running at least 75mph. needed just a bumper and valance. had she been in her car it would have been totaled

That's a lot of carnage. Can't believe the oel didn't damage anything, unless it was a small one. I used to live in the Poconos and those deer are real pests, especially during the rut season .Luckily I never hit one, close calls more than once tho. I had a co-worker driving a work van when a deer ran into the passenger side door while e was driving, crumpling the lower half of the door. Him and the deer kept going, their own separate ways !

Owl was flying across the road, right to left. Hit near the top of the glass right in front of me. Guess it just glanced off. Big **** of feathers though.

Coworker had a deer try to come through the windshield of a 2500 chevy van about a month ago
