Goldilocks exacts a swift revenge

From The Washington Post:

There’s a new hunting legend in the mountains of Western Maryland.
Born to the woods, she’s 4 1/2 feet tall and 8 years old, with a shock of light brown hair and a steady trigger finger that put two bullets into a black bear’s chest cavity Monday, according to her and her father and granduncle, who were hunting with her. State officials backed the claim by Sierra Stiles and credited her with the first kill of Maryland’s second bear season since hunting the animals resumed after a half-century ban.

I’m not into hunting and this story kind of freaks me out, but I thought it was post-worthy nonetheless. Are kids really allowed to hunt? Yikes.
