It's for this reason we don't take the horses out during deer season.

Same reason some farmers near where I grew up in Maine would paint "COW" on their cows - I never saw an entire cow painted orange, but I saw orange paint on cows.

Same reason I don't take my dogs hiking during deer season...

Aggravating, and entirely preventable if people would just identify targets and backstops.
