Sorry to depart from the Sunday Lunch/Ethnic banter theme.

Had to goaround on short final in a 152 due to a deer on the runway.Was about to land as due to width of runway (ex-mil) and bobbing white tail had dismissed atco report and assumed it was a bunny. Would've made a mess of the spamcan.

If you look on the Africa forum you'll find a story about a 73 which had an undignified exit due to canine powerplant intervention. A sobering vision when spotted on the approach from the flightdeck.
