Russian hunter shot dead by own dog
Sergei Terekhov died on a drive to the hospital following a gunshot to his abdomen.
This happened while the deceased was on a trip around the Volga river in company of his brother who rushed him to a hospital.
Unfortunately, he gave up the ghost on the trip.
The tragic event came about when Terekhov attempted to let out two Estonian hounds from a vehicle.

One of the animals however hopped on him excitedly leading to an unintentional discharge of a bullet which struck the victim in the abdomen according to the Telegraph UK News.
An investigator Alexander Galanin described the incident as an accident.
He also described the deceased as a sober man who was experienced in the art of hunting, a popular leisure activity in Russia.
“A pretty experienced hunter died,”
“He was sober and had a gun licence. Everything was in order. It was an accident,” says Galanin.
