I've seen this bug a few times, here's a short vid with a couple of examples.
I choose to believe the animals are just groovin' to the tunes in their head.

Seen this happen lately also. Oh, and unfortunately it seems that video can't be watched in Sweden where the Devs are located since it says it's been blocked in this country by SME for copyright reasons....

I've seen that a lot. Actually I think path finding has gotten after their latest updates. It's the first thing I noticed after not having played the game for months. I even had one deer "walking on ice" between 3 pieces of rock (U shape in top view) after I tried to shoot it. I even had to time to walk the 500ft towards him and he was still doing the dance. Eventually he managed to escape through a small opening between 2 rocks.
