Grill guards are a common sight in rural areas. I have known a few people of questionable moral character who have no issue aiming for deer/elk on the road and processing the meat themselves. https://a.co/d/d86EVHD

You better have a high car then, elks are big. You just end up pushing the legs away and the heavy part goes into your lap through the windshield.

That grill would work unless the deer gives a tiny hop - as they tend to do - and goes right into your windshield

Reindeer don't hop very well, though.

I didn't know that about them. But deer do hop to windshield height, and moose may have to crouch a little to get there
