Doe Season

I liked this story alot. To me, it was interesting, and made me want to keep reading it. It is about a young girl named Andy, who experiences her first hunting trip with her father, and a family friend and his son. The hunting party, except for her father, had doubts on Andy ever killing a deer. But she proves them wrong. She gets a shot at a doe, the doe runs off, and the hunt is on to try to find this doe. The doe isn't found, until the next day. But Andy had an encoutner with the doe that no one in the camp knew about. She is able to visibly see her shot and reach into the doe's wound, which she describes as "torn flesh sticky and warm." She feels the heart, warm and beating, but when Andy tries to remove her hand, she really struggles and she gets a terrible burning sensation. So, was the doe trying to let her experience pain too, like it was? She is free from the doe, goes back to camp, and the next morning they all go out to try and find it. The doe is found and is gutted out at that time by the others. Andy has a hard time watching this and leaves, which she seems, distraught.
