One of our MD80's had a dual deer strike one night resulting in a high speed abort. Someone put two deer decals on the nose section. One of our pilots had a fish strike at 100 ft landing at OAK when a seagull dropped it when it saw the plane about to hit him. Fish and deer are harder to avoid than big birds.
