This could be why I'm not exactly an animal person.

I love my dog, but I'd be furious if this happened. According to MSNBC.com and the AP, a bird hunter in Utah was shot in the buttocks after his dog stepped on a shotgun laid across the bow of a boat.

Box Elder County Sheriff's Deputy Kevin Potter says the 46-year-old Brigham City man was duck hunting with a friend 10 miles west of the city when he climbed out of the boat to move decoys.

And imagine this happening to you last week. A wild turkey apparently flew into an Eat'n Park restaurant on -- of all days -- Thanksgiving, according to The Pittsburgh Channel.com. The 15-pound turkey was found among a pile of shattered glass on the carpet near some booth tables around 3 p.m. (Unfortunately?) nobody was inside the restaurant on Frankstown Road, which was closed for the holiday.
