Crash crash crash, CRUH-CRASH!
It starts right as I’m falling asleep.
CRASH! CRASH! CRASH!
The sound is coming from the other end of the clearing, where some people are camped. Some big animal, stomping around in the woods around their tent.
A bear?
Silence.
Oh. The bear has gone away.
I’m about to drift off when it happens again, this time closer.
CRASH! CRASH! CRASH! Shuffle shuffle shuffle. Step. Step. Step. CRASHCRASHCRASHCRASH!
The animal is circling the clearing now, behind the tents.
CRASH! CRASH! CRASH!
The animal is coming closer to my tent.
Shuffle. Shuffle. Step. Step. Step.
What the fuck is that?
I pull out my headlamp and shine it through the mesh of my tent. A huge brown mass crosses the dark gulf between two trees, and disappears.
CRASHCRASHCRASHCRASH!
It’s a deer.
Just a deer. I lie back down in my sleeping bag and shut my eyes.
CRASHCRASHCRASHCRASH! goes the deer, as it circles the clearing. Step! Step! Step!
The deer is coming closer to my tent. The deer is circling, moving into the clearing. The deer is not afraid.
The deer is insane.
“Go away, deer!” I shout. I just want to go to sleep. The deer startles and runs into the trees.
CRASH. CRASH. CRASH. The deer is coming closer again.
Step. Step. Step. The deer is approaching my tent. I roll over, determined to ignore the deer.
Slurpslurpslurpslurpslurp. The deer is eating the sand where I peed.
Salt. The deer wants salt. The crazy deer wants salt.
CRASHCRASHCRASHCRASH. The deer runs into the trees again.
Crash. Crash. Crash. Crash. The deer is circling the clearing. And circling the clearing. Again, and again, and again.
Oh my god, I think.
