The hunting incident that occurred in Russia's Saha Republic was reflected on social media. The deer, which they shot and injured with a rifle, attacked one of the hunters, knocking him to the ground. The other hunter was too frightened to intervene. While no information was provided about the condition of the injured hunter, experts warned that injured animals can be dangerous. In a similar incident in the U.S. in 2020, a hunter was killed.
An incident that occurred during a hunt in Russia's Republic of Saha has become a hot topic on social media. The hunters, who injured the deer they were hunting, were taken by surprise by the animal's unexpected attack.
In the incident that took place in the snow-covered terrain, two hunters approached the deer with their rifles. One of the hunters fired and injured the deer. However, the non-fatal wound made the deer aggressive. The injured animal suddenly charged at the hunter and knocked him down with its antlers.
Footage captured by a security camera shows the deer trampling the hunter with its antlers and hooves. The other hunter, wanting to save his friend, was unable to shoot due to the fear that the deer might attack him as well. A third person recording the incident from a vehicle tried to scare the deer by shouting.
Local media did not provide information about the hunter's health status. However, experts indicate that injured wild animals can become extremely aggressive to protect themselves.
A similar incident resulted in death in 2020 in the state of Oregon, USA. 66-year-old hunter Mark David was gored to death by a deer he had injured with a bow and arrow.
