Other livestock aren't as likely to cause fatal injuries to car occupants if they are hit, because the animal's body is lower to the road, less likely to come over the hood.
That's interesting to know. It's also interesting to note that other animals, with the possible exception of sheep, will not run through an electric fence once they know that it is there. Sheep do it intentionally.
Domesticated sheep are born with vague intelligence, but this is gone by the time they are adults. There can be no speaking of intention, because they are incapable.
A lamb bounces around, playful and amusing, and if it sees a fence, it *stops* short of the fence. Sheep will run straight into the fence, and snap their necks, if at the front of a herd. Been there. Seen it. Sheep are stupid. Really.
