Washington state girl, 11, shoots cougar that stalked her brother
11-year-old Shelby White fired a rifle at an emaciated female cougar estimated to weight a paltry 50 pounds. The animal appeared to be following her 14-year-old brother, Tanner, into their home before she shot the life-saving bullet. It was the third such death of a cougar on the Whites' property in two weeks. Locals speculate the animals are starving and looking closer to humans for food.
