Or more correctly, that's why you leave the safety on until you're ready to shoot something.
For what it's worth, in my NRA hunter safety education (circa 1977), we were instructed to unload a firearm before setting it down to cross a fence, get in or out of a boat, etc.
I feel for the guy with the trigger-happy dog, but he really brought it on himself.
