The local news: "It's all happy endings here!"

What is with the Bend Bulletin and its happy animal news?? 

You may remember last week's lead article on Buster the dog being returned to his owner.

This week there's the lost llama (found healthy after a 14-day search) and a recovering deer (arrow wound, not too surprising in hunting country).

Hey, I'm a true animal lover and these stories warm my cynical little heart, but are they really FRONT PAGE HEADLINE NEWS?

(By the way, Tina's dead deer story, not having a happy ending, was relegated to the bottom right, though still apparently front page stuff.)
