Dog attack

A pregnant French woman was found mauled to death by dogs after walking her dog at the same time a group of hunting hounds were said to be stalking deer in the area. The woman reportedly called her partner before the attack to express her concern about "threatening" dogs.

Three of the dogs were shot and killed at the scene, while another was later put down due to her injuries.

New York State Police investigators determined the wounds and circumstances were "consistent with a dog attack."

Though the boy was bitten, his 19-year-old neighbor saved the child by running directly at the attacking dog.

The dog—reportedly a pit bull terrier—bit a number of children after it got loose during the recess of third and fourth graders.

Fairy penguins weigh just two pounds when fully grown.

When approached, the dog was "barking and lunging on the leash."

The boy was at his aunt's house when the dogs attacked.

The family pet which killed the young girl was later seized by authorities.

All of the dogs involved in the attack were under 40 pounds and of mixed breeds.

Police were called and shot dead one of the dogs.
