A Florida hog hunter's girlfriend is in the hospital today after she was accidentally shot by her own boyfriend who, wait for it...mistook her for a hog. 

The man, 52-year-old Steven Egan, was hunting in Flagler, Florida, when he heard a noise that he assumed came from a hog. So, he shot at it, since that's definitely the logical thing to do, and ended up hitting his girlfriend, 52-year-old Lisa Simmons, with the bullet. It went through both her legs. 

Simmons was immediately airlifted to a hospital, where she is currently recovering from emergency surgery.

But, wait, let's recap.

He thought his girlfriend was a hog, and he shot her.
