unknown ecologist

An unnamed ecologist was recently in the news after being accidentally shot in the thigh by a hunter while resting in a forest near Bükkzsérc. The incident occurred on February 2, 2024, when a 58-year-old guest hunter fired a shot using a thermal camera from his vehicle, mistakenly believing he was targeting game. The ecologist suffered significant injuries that required multiple surgeries and resulted in permanent disability. Following the incident, the hunter received a fine and a three-year hunting ban, which sparked public outrage and raised concerns about the adequacy of the punishment.
