Fences probably account for more critters than most would guess. About 35 years ago, I was driving down a road on my way to go deer hunting. A large doe ran out of the field to my right, across the road in front of me, and into the woods on my left. I continued down the road a bit, then pulled into a field lane, uncased my bow, and slowly snuck my way back just a little inside the woods. I thought I might catch her unaware if she had stopped after crossing the road. I found her 30 or 40 yards from the edge of the road. Dead. No signs of injury. There was a two or three strand barb wire fence just on the woods side of the road ditch. My best guess is she hit the fence, broke her neck, and made it that far. It was weird. Had fun convincing my brothers I had killed it by shooting it in the tail. Eventually, I had to tell them what actually happened.
