Not sure what the first thing was, but my brother and I charged, tried, convicted, and sentenced LOTS of toads to death via the gas chamber - Quaker Oats container and a "Smoke Bomb" from the fireworks stand...

Continuing the pattern here... I was 5 with a Daisy and shot a humming bird.
Soon after I shot a dove right in the head. No license, probably out of season, but I don't think anyone thought even if I hit it that it would die.
And I still shoot my son's Daisy during this time of year. Otherwise the dang grackles will roost in our back yard and poop all over everything.

Either was a dove or duck when I was 5 - my dad started me hunting both with a 20ga shotgun during the season. That was back in 61.

Lol She was pissed because I tried to bury it in her garden and she found it. Think I was 5 it was in CO. I remember getting my arse whooped for it and lost my sling shot. I tried like hell to get the magpies but they were to fast, so I got smart and let them come to me

Little tweetie bird with a slighshot when I was like 7. I cried afterwards.
But I was hooked. Many more fell victim.

Taking my nephew for his first kill. We're going to drown a mess of nightcrawlers.
Sometimes it's hard being me! But somebody has to do it.

A whole bunch of time waiting for my first deer to show up.
Then a rabbit showed up first. Did him with a stick and string.
