Watch out for Hunters!

Eight people have died so far this year in hunting accidents, 1 more than all of last year despite the fact that the season doesn't end till February

The hunting season in France is well under way & so far eight people have died in hunting accidents this season, one more death than during the whole hunting season last year. The government has now raised the alarm as the hunting season still has another two months to run, not finishing before February 2020 (unless extended). Last year, there were 131 accidents and seven people died, the last hunting accident happened on Saturday in the Ardennes department when a 59-year-old hunter died after being shot in the abdomen by a fellow hunter.
