I am so sorry for your loss. That must have been very tramatic for the
both of you. Killing a wild animal to protect yourself is just something
that can't be avoided at times. Wild animals will go wherever they can
find food. Farmer's have always been a target due to the animals they
house. You would think there would be enough to eat with so many deer
(is sad to think about but true) available with the over popluation of them.
Stay safe.
