I drove over a landscape paver on a three lane highway going about 40 mph. Damaged the front stay-assy cross member, dents in right side resonator and exhaust pipe, bent up rear stay-assy tunnel brace, and put a small dent in the oil pan. It sounded like the underside of my 370z roadster was being ripped off.

The doe lived. And if anyone was wondering, that was nearly $9k in damage. That happened about a year ago.

A partridge flew in front of my Caliber at about 40. I hit it, looked in the mirror for body parts and didn't see any. So I pulled over and found the bird was jammed into the brake cooling duct at the front of the car. Just feet and *** sticking out.

Big-a$$ bird in my brother's Capri at about 70. Almost broke the window
Possum in a Capri at about 70. Broke the air dam.
Unknow furry animal ground up in the wheels of my 240Z... Very messy No Damage
Big dead dog in the Vette at about 50. Felt it through the floorboards no damage
Only bugs and inanimate objects in the Z.

Freaking 2 ladders on the highway on the way home last night. The second one was in the middle of the highway. Really glad I was 1 lane over because it would of been really close to catching something on the bottom of the Z. Some moron construction worker probably got home and was wondering what happened to my two ladders, could of sworn I put them on the truck before I went home.

Not yet, but I did have a bird fly into the passenger door resulting in the death of the bird but just a little clean up on the door.

I hit a deer back when I had my Saturn Ion Redline. Luckily, the deer did a barrel roll and my windshield absorbed almost all of the impact. Besides the shattered windshield, the only damage was some dents on the hood, a crack in the fender, and a busted wiper motor. Damages only ended up being around $2,200 altogether.
