“The Jägermeister stag is my spirit animal”

Jägermeister  is a German digestif. The Jägermeister label on bottles shows a glowing Christian cross seen between the antlers of a stag.

The joke involves the term “spirit animal” with a pun on “spirit” (alcohol).
       
     
Wikipedia: Jägermeister
Jägermeister (/ˈjeɪɡərmaɪstər/ YAY-gər-my-stər, German: [ˈjɛːɡɐˌmaɪstɐ]; stylized Jägermeiſter) is a German digestif made with 56 herbs and spices. Developed in 1934 by Wilhelm and Curt Mast, it has an alcohol by volume of 35% (61 degrees proof, or US 70 proof). The recipe has not changed since its creation and continues to be served in its signature green glass bottle.

Label
The label on Jägermeister bottles features a glowing Christian cross seen between the antlers of a stag. This image is a reference to the two Christian patron saints of hunters, Saint Hubertus and Saint Eustace, both of whom converted to Christianity after experiencing a vision in which they saw a Christian cross between the antlers of a stag.
