MOUNTAIN HOME, Texas (AP) - A 27-year-old game manager has been
gored to death at an exotic game hunting ranch in Central Texas by
a rare deer known for its full, sharply pointed rack.
Brandon Buchi, a game manager at the Y.O. Ranch, suffered
puncture wounds to the side and thigh last week.
Kerrville County Sheriff Rusty Hierholzer said Wednesday that
the deer, known as a Barasingha (bar-a-sing-ga), attacked after
Buchi removed it from a transport trailer on ranch grounds Oct. 1.
Hierholzer tells the Austin American-Statesman that the deer
died from the exertion of the attack.
The Y.O. Ranch, founded in 1880, is located about 100 miles west
of Austin.
