The man (who remains anonymous) was hunting for foxes in Belarus (who aren’t protected from hunting because they transmit rabies), close to the border of Poland. After being shot from a distance, according to the police, “the animal fiercely resisted and in the struggle accidentally pulled the trigger with its paw”. The fox managed to run off as friends jumped in to save the wounded man.
Obviously, a man’s life is more valuable than the animal’s but I can’t help but think that this is some sort of twisted poetic justice. [Daily Mail via Neatorama]

Well, that's the thing about hunting. If you hunt, you should be prepared for death at the hands of your quarry. It only makes sense. We've just forgotten this because of technology.
you is smart
Perhaps next tine, he'll use a howitzer instead.

sorry
but HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
It's like something out of a Loony Tunes cartoon!
Late comment, but it is an illusion to believe that any life has greater value than another life.
The predator is not more valuable than its prey, it is simply the yin to another yang in a natural cyclic construct.
