Its like the footballer who had a hear attack on the field and everyone was wishing him well. 124,000 people have heart attacks every year but that one had a lot of tv coverage so most people knew about that one heart attack.
This is a good point, its like when somebody gets stabbed and it makes the news, you will see stabbings in the news for about a week, then it goes, but people are still being stabbed daily.

I don't like the fact animals have to be killed, but I agree there are lots worse things happening daily.
