One isolated incident does not totally discredit the effectiveness of the 9mm round. After all, it has been proven through several wars on humans, dogs and many other creatures. Heck my friend shot a 400 Ibs black bear with a .22 LR and stopped it dead. Does that mean everyone should start hunting bears with .22s?

The FBI has conducted several studies, and have concluded that shot placement (not size of the round) is what matters most when it comes to stopping man, and I would think this rule would apply to 4 legged beasts as well.
