Alaska's annual Iditarod dog sled race ended with a victory for the ages: One of the biggest names in the sport came from behind after a moose attack to win the grueling, days-long contest for an unprecedented sixth time. But Dallas Seavey's record-setting win late Tuesday was overshadowed by the deaths of three dogs in this year's storied endurance race across the Alaska wilderness, and renewed calls from an animal rights group to stop the race. A fourth dog, one of Seavey's, was severely injured by a moose on the trail.
