I rarely swerve, even for larger animals. Brakes are almost always the best bet, and never at the same time as swerving.
The only time I swerve is when I notice the obstacle with less than 2 seconds to react. Last time this happened it was snowing very hard at night, and I was driving as quickly as I could since I was in the middle of nowhere and didn't have chains. 3 deer appeared across the road, and somehow I threaded the car-width gap between 2 of them.
