Well if he was as clueless as the Daily News editor who illustrated this story, no wonder

Hunter in Arkansas kills woman after mistaking her for a deer. The man should be imprisoned for manslaughter, even reckless homicide, for not making positive identification of what he was shooting at, but just as careless, albeit with no bad result, was the lazy city slicker editor who just grabbed a stock photo of " deer' off the web, and used a European red deer to illustrate a story involving an American white tail. 

Red deer, harts, stags, call them what you want, but you won't find them in Arkansas
