(CNN) — Comedian Jay Leggett, who produced a documentary about the joys of deer hunting, died of natural causes at the end of a deer hunt Saturday.

Leggett, 50, collapsed and died next to his all-terrain vehicle at the end of a hunt on the first day of gun deer season in his native Tomahawk, Wisconsin, according to Lincoln County sheriff’s spokesman Mike Caylor. A deer that Leggett had killed was strapped to the ATV.

Leggett’s 2011 film “To the Hunt: Deer Season in Tomahawk, Wisconsin” documented deer camp life and “the fun, family and fraternity of the hunt,” according to promotional materials.

“The victim had returned to the cabin from his deer stand on an ATV,” the sheriff’s statement said. “When he got off the machine he collapsed and was found unresponsive by family members who immediately started CPR.” […to no avail.]

First him, then Brian Griffin--what's the world coming to?

  1. I never heard of Leggett. He is quite unwholesome looking. Seems that a vegan karma burger finally got him. Too bad about the deer.

  2. I’ve already cooked the Tofurkey-stuffed with herb wild rice. For dessert there is vegan pumpkin pie and vegan chocolate cake. And not to forget the waldorf of raw pecans and grapes and apple and celery with a stir of vegan mayo. A dainty glass of Merlot of course and gourmet coffee sabor a chocolate. Dinner served all week.

  3. Another hunter that claims he “always eats what he kills,” but doesn’t.

    Also, isn’t it unusual to mount a deer stand on an ATV?
