I guess to me, human - animal interaction is mostly constituted from the above basis.

Why are people so shallow when voting? I say this is a great interaction, it makes you think. At least it influences me that way.

This shot needs me.

There are two outstanding things about this shot. The first is the title. The second is that the hand looks like yet another cloven hoof.

I give you my Posthumous Yellow Ribbon.

I elected to use a rating table to decide on what value to assign during voting.
Here’s the table:
1 No Animal/People Interaction
2 Slightly Appealing, but no Animal/People Interaction
3 Moderately Appealing, but on Animal/People Interaction
4 Greatly Appealing, but no Animal/People interaction
5 Not Appealing, but possessing Animal/People Interaction
6 Slightly Appealing and possessing Animal/People Interaction
7 Moderately Appealing and possessing Animal/People Interaction
8 Greatly Appealing and possessing Animal People Interaction
9 Better than #8, and caused an audible sigh
10 Better than #9, and would likely declare it a favorite

I'm not sure I care for the lighting and the focus seems a bit off, but the whole concept seems delightfully absurd - what a clever twist on the challenge theme. Something about the way the gentleman appears to be elegantly dressed in a suit, contrasted with the utterly gruesome pig's feet or whatever they are, is bitingly ironic. Add the pricetag, and you have a most curious photo.

A much closer view than I usually get of the butchered remains of an animal in a very raw state. Harsh, but thought-provoking.

Great OOB idea re gruesome side of our interaction with animals. Falls a bit short however on SAT and DOF.

A different and somewhat macabre take on the challenge in my opinion. Nothing really appears sharp here.
