370 deer killed by a lightning strike in Norway last Friday...lightning strikes this year have killed groups of people and animals.. the media separates and downplays these stories this year-here the article mentions deer have died there before from lightning strikes just not as many-but leave no statistics on what is 'normal' deer kill from lighting...I could find absolutely no statistics on the net of what a 'normal' death toll of deer from a  lightning strike is....
