A young Saudi hunter killed an old Saudi female shepherd and told police he shot her because he thought she was a monkey, a newspaper reported on Wednesday.

“He aimed his gun and shot. The bullet hit the woman in the chest. When the man came near her, he was shocked to find she is a woman,” Sabq daily said.
