That jump in the end by the "horse with horns" was so smooth.

[@matthewgroff433]

Some Deer can jump about 8 feet high from a stand still, it is very rare. I have personally seen it!! Running some can definitely jump over an 8 foot high fence, it is rare. And yes I have personally seen that too! Most can easily clear a 4 foot high fence and even a 6 foot high fence.
