This apparently happened a few weeks ago.  A hunter was shot in the shoulder.  He goes on at length about this incident and the mistakes.  He does have video of the hunt after a few minutes where you can hear the shot and injury happen (you are looking at video of the hogs with people talking).  The video shows the hogs were running right to left and the guy got hit after a bit of panning to the left. 

Similar to bird hunting in a way, but more distracting as guys are using night vision and scopes at night.  I imagine the potential target fixation can be much worse.
