Soon, he'll be taught how to fling poo. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Punch the Lonely Baby Monkey Has a New BFF, and It's a Beautiful Thing [...] It was a heartbreaking story for those of us who love animals, and maybe even for those who don't. You see, Punch, the seven-month-old baby macaque who lives at the Ichikawa City Zoo in Japan, became a viral sensation when he was abandoned by his mother and bullied by others in the troop. Having no friends, he was left to find comfort in his stuffed animal, which he dragged around everywhere and refused to let go of.

Look at these videos! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Top Cartel Leader Killed, Total Chaos Erupts in Mexico UPDATE, 3:43 PM EST: The Mexican Secretariat of National Defense (SEDENA) made its first statement on the operation, suggesting it was done in coordination with the United States. It also says that "elements of the National Guard and troops from the Army in central Mexico and states adjacent to Jalisco are concentrating to reinforce the security" of the region. Original article Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes, aka "El Mencho," is dead. One of the founders and current leader of the Cártel de Jalisco Nueva Generación (CJNG), he was one of the most wanted and dangerous fugitives in Mexico, and some say the entire world. This weekend, the Mexican government confirmed that its military killed him in an operation in the mountains of the town of Tapalpa, in the state of Jalisco, where he had operated freely for decades, protected by his own ranks. It's widely seen as a major victory in the Donald Trump-led war against drug trafficking in the Western Hemisphere. Or, at least, a good start. And it's potentially a sign that Mexico's narco-president is cooperating more — or, at least, trying to get Trump off her back a little bit.
