Comprehensive Insurance Covers Animal Accidents
As far as your auto insurance company is concerned, hitting an animal is covered under your comprehensive coverage. Swerving to miss hitting an animal and crashing into oncoming traffic is considered a collision claim. If your vehicle has sustained damages, you'll need to decide whether or not to file a claim depending on your insurance policy's coverage options.

Will My Insurance Rates Increase After An Animal Accident?
Most auto insurance providers will not raise your premiums due to a comprehensive claim after an animal accident unless your claims are frequent. Collision claims, however, will often raise your rates, so you should evaluate the damage and decide if you are better off paying out of pocket.
