I hit one that ran in front of my '57 Chevy and flipped it up into the grill opening - didn't have a grill or cross bar in there, just that big "mouth". It got stuck right under the passenger side headlight where the fresh air intake for the heater is, and it was a foggy night, about 40 degrees. By the time I got the heater shut off and the windows open, and got the critter out of the grill opening, it was too late; that car always had a vague skunk smell in it after that.
