I have an authoritative book on owls that claims that "Roe Deer" (a very small deer in Europe) have been eaten by a Great Horned Owl (or their version of that owl). It didn't say whether it was a juvenile or injured deer.

Many owls swallow prey whole and regurgitate a pellet later, but they are quite happy to eat the traditional way... tear the animal apart w/ the beak and eat just the flesh.

Yes, deer eat dead leaves. The animal in question favors fresh shoots. But deer graze upon fallen leaves when nothing else is available, particularly during cold, lean autumnal and winter months.
