Former Miss Universe Contestant Dies After Horrifying Incident With An Elk

“I really hope that Kseniya's death will not be in vain, and that somehow this barbarity will be stopped," Kseniya Alexandrova’s husband said.
Kseniya Alexandrova, who represented Russia in the 2017 Miss Universe pageant, died last week after a car accident involving an elk. She was 30.
The late model’s husband recalled the heartbreaking incident to Russian news outlet RIA Novosti.
On July 5, the couple was driving on Russia’s sprawling M9 highway from the town of Rzhev in the Tver Oblast region when their car collided with the animal, according to a HuffPost translation. Alexandrova’s husband was behind the wheel, while Alexandrova sat in the passenger seat. Her husband noted that he was driving slowly because the road they were traveling on was being repaired, and it was a “high road” with no barrier for the animals.
When their car hit the elk, the airbags didn’t deploy, and the animal smashed through the windshield and struck Alexandrova.
“An elk jumped out from somewhere, jumped out in front of the car,” he said. “From the moment it jumped out until the impact, a split second passed. I did not have time to do anything. The elk flew into the car. [Alexandrova] got hit in the head. She was unconscious, her head was broken, everything was covered in blood.” He added that after the animal collided with Alexandrova, he could see part of her brain.
