Thumb Sucking Monkey May Need Braces
A baby white-collared mangabey born at the Paris Museum of Natural History has been advised by orthodontists that if he continues to suck his thumb, he’ll grow up needing a retainer – or worse, braces.
“Then, all the other monkeys will call him brace face,” says Dr. Jack Fogarty, DDS. “That’s preventable. We just have to correct this behavior early on.”

Town Council Nixes Black Bear Playground Expansion
Much to the chagrin of the area black bear population, the town council voted 5-4 against plans to expand the local bear cub playground. Had the measure passed, the town would have been obligated to seek $2.4 million in municipal bonds via ballot measure this November to finance a playground renovation.
“It’s an outrage,” said one concerned citizen. "That playground is a mess and I don’t think those cubs can bear it any longer. No wait… that pun was terrible. Can you not print that?“
The vote was very much along party lines.
