Prince of the Wild Frontier

You can read for yourself, I am not making this up. Tre Merritt, the five year old, great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great-grandchild of Davy Crockett, shot and killed a black bear in Arkansas on Sunday.

My favorite quotes from the Fox Sports posting:
"(The bear) came in about 40 to 50 yards," Mike Merritt, Tre's grandfather, told KATV of Little Rock, Ark, "and when he got in the open, I whistled at him and he stopped and I said, 'Shoot Tre.' "

"Davy supposedly killed him a bear when he was three. And Tre is five and really killed a bear. I really doubt if Davy killed one when he was three."
Yes, you read that correctly, "killed him a bear" he did.
