UPDATE: Travis Shooting

" The cartoon in Wednesday's Post by Sean Delonas shows two police officers, one with a smoking gun, standing over the body of a bullet-riddled chimp. The caption reads: "They'll have to find someone else to write the next stimulus bill." "

OH NO! More News about Travis - and now this cartoon. This doesn't seem good for chimpanzees and monkeys. I'm still waiting for details on what really happened and what caused this tragedy. I'm happy to report that a full investigation has been launched.
