Anyone involved in animal rights has probably muttered something similar to, “How would you feel if the animals had guns and hunted us?” Well a little fox in Belarus did just that, he actually shot a hunter.
According to Reuters, the unnamed hunter shot the fox from a distance wounding the animal.
When the man decided to finish off the poor injured creature with the butt of his gun he got the surprise of a lifetime.
The fox obviously objected to the hunters attempt to finish him off and “fiercely resisted.”
Apparently during the scuffle the fox hit the trigger of the man’s rifle firing off a shot that landed squarely in the hunter’s leg.
The hunter is recovering from his leg wound in a nearby hospital.
And the fox got away.
