No, blunt force trauma....

Damn, it's a good thing that deer hit the passenger side. That would surely have killed the driver. I had a friend in high school get killed that way. Buck horns went right into his chest, punctured his heart and lungs. Coroner said it was quick and he probably didn't feel it. What a way to go though.

Bad Mojo there.... I have some pictures that I cant figure out WHAT ANIMAL it was before getting hit.... I cant verify any pieces??????

Any guesses????

Obviously some kind of herbivore. The bottom image looks like a stomach and the green is field grass or alfalfa. I am guessing maybe a cow judging by the amount of stomach contents. Sorry if this sounds gross to everyone else, I had a secondary duty as a medic in the AF, so this doesn't bother me.

But look at the first pic and the damage to the car.... At that high speed, if it was a cow, the damage would have been SEVERE.......

Depends on the angle of the hit. If hit toward the back part, it could have glanced the side of the car. The strange thing is that the ejected contents are all over the headliner, yet there is no roof or windshield damage. I do have a theory though. There is a dent in the door of the car. Could it be that a cow was hit by another car going in the opposite direction and threw part of it into the car in the picture? I only theorize that because of the dent in the door and the amount of stuff inside. Also look closely, that side window isn't down, it is shattered.

I noticed also that there is a very limited amount of blood inside the car.... You hypothesis makes sense, although, if a flying piece of an impacted cow was to hit this car, there would surely be splattered blood/and or parts.....

Okay, I'm going to get graphic here, so squeamish people should move beyond this post. You have been warned...

It looks like a direct hit of flying entrails. The stomach piece is on the passenger side, the handle and the seat are from the passenger side, no question. Look at the rear passenger side window in the sixth shot down, more pieces, possibly intestine, but could be a stomach connector. Cows have multiple stomachs. Shot 5 has some hanging flesh and blood splatter on the window frame. Notice also that mixed in with the green semi-digested stuff, there is blades of grass.

Keep in mind that if the cow was hit by another vehicle, most of the blood would be on the other car (or truck), and the parts that hit this car have most likely already separated from the animal in a pink mist. I am guessing that the part that was still semi-intact with fur still on it hit the lower part and the les intact parts hit the window, shattering it and filling the car with the junk.

That's my take on it anyway. I used to work with a PI while I was in high school, so I rely on some of the investigative techniques from then. It may be a smaller animal, say a goat, but nothing smaller than a goat. Way too much semi-digested stuff to be smaller.

Okay now, anyone for guacamole?

Hey, were'd everyone go??? hehe

LMFAO with the Guac......

I was thinking it was a goat that jumped up just before impact... That was my take on it.... Yours is definatly viable......

Definitely a grazing herbivore. Either way, it's one hell of a mess. I'd call that a total because that smell will never come out, even with a gallon of Febreze!
