FATAL SHOOTING

A rugged old man was out hunting in the forests of South Africa when he heard a loud rustling in the trees above. Deciding it must be a large bird, the man lets off a volley of shots into the foliage. As nothing seemed to result from his shooting, the man moved under the tree and when he heard yet more rustling directly overhead, he let off another volley of shots. This time, he was delighted to hear an animal cry out in pain. However, his joy soon turned to despair, when tumbling at speed towards him was a large porcupine. The spiky creature landed right on his face, causing so many lacerations that the man died.
