Trudy was the oldest living western lowland gorilla in a zoo, and she was one of the last "wild caught" gorillas. At the age of 63, she has died in Arkansas.The Little Rock Zoo announced the death of its resident of over 31 years Thursday night. Gorillas like her typically live to be about 40 in the wild and 50 in human care, according to the National Zoo, but Trudy outlived them by more than a decade.Brought to the Little Rock Zoo in 1988 from Buffalo with her breeding partner, Ollie, the two were the first gorillas exhibited in Arkansas, according to the zoo.Most gorillas in zoos now are born in captivity, but Trudy was born in the wild. She was one of the last to be caught and brought into zoo captivity.The western lowland gorilla is the most populous and widespread species of all gorillas, according to the World Wildlife Organization. Even so, their numbers are on the decline, with poaching and disease reducing their numbers by 60% over the last 20 to 25 years, according to the organization.They can be found in Cameroon, the Central African Republic, the Democratic Republic of Congo and Gabon. They typically live in groups led by a silverback gorilla, according to the National Zoo, but Trudy bucked tradition.Though she lived with all male groups, zookeepers said Trudy "ruled the roost."She was described as spunky, with a mind of her own. The zoo said she was known for purring when it was time for food or when she saw someone she liked."There are so many memories, stories and anecdotes to share about Trudy. She is a cherished member of the Little Rock Zoo family. To say that she will be missed and that her absence is felt is an understatement. We are glad to know she had a good home with us here," said Little Rock Zoo Director Susan Altrui.The-CNN-Wire? & ? 2019 Cable News Network, Inc., a Time Warner Company. All rights reserved. 1881
The US-backed Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) captured two Americans in Syria who are suspected of being ISIS fighters, the militia said in press release Sunday.The militia identified the men as Warren Christopher Clark (Abu Mohammad al-Ameriki) and Zaid Abed al-Hamid (Abu Zaid al-Ameriki).The SDF said Clark is originally from Houston, but it gave no specific location in the United States for the other man's origin.The Americans were captured in a group that also contained fighters from Ireland and Pakistan, SDF said.A Pentagon spokesman said the incident is under investigation."We are aware of open source reports of reportedly American citizens currently in custody who were believed to be fighting for ISIS. However, we are unable to confirm this information at this time," Commander Sean Robertson said.The White House announced last month that ISIS had been defeated in Syria and the United States would withdraw 2,000 troops from the war-stricken nation.In October, the US military 1006

The pictures are horrific, and the stories behind the devastating crashes are heartbreaking.In one accident, 17-year-old Annaleah and 13-year-old Mary died in the backseat of their car, after a truck hit them and pushed the car underneath a tractor-trailer. Their mother, Marianne Karth, is haunted by it. “It's a very devastating crash. It's like the most devasting you can have,” Karth says. Lois Durso also lost her 26-old-daughter, Roya, in one of these same types of crashes.“Her hair was on the tires of the trailer, so we know it crushed her,” Durso recalls. Eric Hein experienced a similar tragedy. His 16-year-old son, Riley, died on his way to marching band practice after getting trapped underneath a tractor-trailer truck.“He went underneath the trailer,” Hein recalls. “His car got dragged for half a mile until it was engulfed in flames, and the fire killed him.” Tragedy brought all three parents together. Now, perseverance pushes them forward as they take steps to prevent these types of crashes. Karth and Durso organized a crash test in Washington, D.C. just weeks after members of Congress reintroduced the Stop Underrides Act, which would update and strengthen safety laws, including requiring tractor trailers to have guards on the sides to help prevent cars from ending up underneath them.“Seeing is believing, and for them to witness with their own eyes and own ears and to have it be something they see,” Karth says of their crash test. “Crash into the side of the trailer with a side guard and without to see the life and death difference.” Past legislation has stalled, but the parents hope this dramatic demonstration will be enough to get Congress to take action. Tests have shown when installed properly, guards can make a difference and keep cars from sliding underneath trailers. “It's not the crash that kills, it's the underride,” explains Durso. “If you can prevent the underride, there's a chance the vehicle occupants will survive.” Groups representing the trucking industry have concerns about the cost and say the guards add extra weight and can impact how tractor trailers can maneuver. However, parents say those concerns will not slow down their effort and they remain driven to save lives. “I lost my son. I don't want somebody else to go through this tragedy. These are preventable deaths,” says Hein. 2357
The parents of Otto Warmbier, Fred and Cindy Warmbier, will have dinner at the White House on Saturday night with President Donald Trump and Richard Grenell, the US ambassador to Germany, according to two administration sources.Otto Warmbier was an American college student who was held prisoner for 17 months by Pyongyang and died shortly after he was returned home in a comatose state in 2017.It's unclear how Saturday's dinner was planned and whether anyone else will join them. A spokesman for the National Security Council did not provide a comment.Grenell has been in Washington for the last few days and is one of the many contenders eyeing the national security adviser job, the sources say. But this dinner was planned before John Bolton was fired earlier this week.Grenell met with the Warmbiers when they visited Germany in August. He posted a photo of himself with Cindy Warmbier and his own mother on Instagram."Today I introduced Otto Warmbier's mother Cindy to my mom, Judi. Cindy is focused on bringing some justice to her family - and we are ready to help," Grenell wrote in his caption for the photo.After a second summit with Kim Jong Un in Hanoi, Vietnam, earlier this year, Trump said he does not hold the North Korean dictator responsible for Warmbier's death.The Warmbiers rejected Trump's remark."We have been respectful during this summit process. Now we must speak out. Kim and his evil regime are responsible for the death of our son Otto. Kim and his evil regime are responsible for unimaginable cruelty and inhumanity. No excuses or lavish praise can change that. Thank you," the Warmbiers said in a statement at the time.Earlier this week Trump criticized Bolton for earlier comments he had made regarding North Korean denuclearization that angered Kim Jong Un."He's using that to make a deal with North Korea? And I don't blame Kim Jong Un for what he said after that, and he wanted nothing to do with John Bolton. And that's not a question of being tough. That's a question of being not smart to say something like that," Trump said. 2077
