I am shaken by the breakdown. We just can't keep ignoring them. The picture shows the shocking end to a great animal. How brave they are and we must do what's best to prevent this.

my husband picked up an arkansas democrat gazette for me today. i can't believe they chose to use this appalling photo as well--and it's their only pic from the day. i'm sorry, i don't understand it. nothing like focusing on the bad, rather than celebrating all the good.

so because i'd just as soon not have THAT image burned into my brain, rather than say, her gazelle win, i'm ignoring it?? i don't think that's the case. some people try to accentuate the positive, doesnt' mean your head is in the sand when you do that.

Thanks for starting this thread, Randall, and for everyone chiming in on which news sites have used the picture-- I normally buy all the papers the next day to read recaps of the races, but thanks to this thread, I knew which ones to avoid buying!
