Laurelai Winslow, 13, of Damariscotta has hunted and killed more than 100 animals, including at least 35 considered big game. Big game breaks down to nine deer, three bears, a moose, a caribou, an elk and 20 turkeys, plus lots of smaller game such as rabbits, woodcock and grouse. She killed her first white tail doe deer at 6 years old. Laurelai got her hunting grand slam — a moose, a bear, a deer and a turkey — in 2021 when she was 11. She wants to do that again.
