Woman Survives Deer Attack

An Idaho man and woman are recuperating from a weekend attack by a mule deer.  The woman was walking near her home near Logan, Utah on Friday morning when she was attacked by a buck mule deer.  She was knocked to the ground and the deer began raking her body and gored her legs with its antlers.  She was rescued by a passerby.    The rescuer grabbed the deer by its antlers while his teen daughter struck the deer with a hammer.  The deer eventually fled.  Local television station, KPVI, reports, the man and woman were both treated for puncture wounds, scratches and bruises.
