He apparently struck the deer while he was looking in his rearview mirror and apparently didn't feel a bump or thump or anything. He dragged the deer carcass with him and left a trail of blood down the highway...

The only logical reason I can think of that I didn�t see the deer at all was because, one I must have done a mirror check at that precise instant, and two that section of highway is raised above ground to the right. So the only thing that makes sense to me is that I checked the road ahead, saw that it was clear, and then did a quick checked in my left mirror to check behind, and it was at that instant the deer came up from below on our right.

The bike started shaking after the deer got itself mangled up in the forks and frame, and so the rider decided to slow down and pull over. And he never even knew there was a deer on his bike, until after he got off!
