During landing rollout the student pilot thought he saw something on the right side of the runway and "overcorrected" to the left losing control of the airplane. Several witnesses to the accident reported deer and other wildlife are often present at the airport. None of the witnesses reported any wildlife or obstructions being present at the time of the accident.
