Poor kid! Time for open season on deer, bucks and does. Breed like rabbits and like to play on the highway.

With condolences to those who lost a loved one; how about more (or some!) deer fencing and wildlife underpasses along main routes where the ungulates are known to frolic? Whatsamatter? cost money you say? Hmm, I guess that life is cheap then.
