    In the first link, looks like the guy that fell could have been shot by accident. Looked like he was in the line of fire.

    Sure did - and he sure was!

    I've never hunted the full sized Eastern boars but I have hunted
    probably hundreds of the Western Javalina in the last 45 years,
    or so. We used to hunt them from horses down in the canebrakes
    along the Colorado. Just about every time you'd take a (close up)
    shot at one he'd head right for the closest horse's legs. We'd
    always have a backup 12GA pump or auto waiting for that
    eventuality. When I was about 20, the backup man's horse reared
    and wheeled (a very bad thing) as soon as he saw the wounded
    Javalina headed for my brother's horse's front legs and the guy
    inadvertently squeezed one off. The buckshot caught the edge of
    Tom's hat rim and blew it from his head.

    ... it was a very quiet ride back to camp that evening for all.[|)]

    Someone was lucky to walk away from that deal, they had better bend over and kiss their butt someone was over looking them.[:D][:D]
