Monkey Found In Wolverhampton Conservatory Finds His Forever Home. Marcel, a monkey who bizarrely turned up in a woman's conservatory in Wolverhampton, has finally found a forever home at Monkey World in Dorset. The wayward marmoset was spotted in a garden by a woman before he mysteriously found his way into her home. Despite giving the homeowner a fright, Marcel quickly won over volunteers at Wings and Paws Rescue - who looked after him until he could be rehomed. Remarkably friendly, Marcel's amicable nature led rescuers to suspect that he had once been a pet, potentially abandoned or set free into the wild. The woman who alerted the centre initially spotted Marcel in her garden before he made his way indoors. She initially mistook him for a squirrel. Marcel will receive top-notch care at Monkey World, where he will soon be introduced to his new companion once settled. Marcel’s journey underscores the complex issue of exotic pet ownership, particularly concerning species like marmosets, which are native to South America.

South African President Cyril Ramaphosa on Monday rejected opposition allegations that a recent pause in the electricity cuts that have plagued the country for years was due to an election coming up on May 29. Rolling power cuts imposed by state utility Eskom reached record levels in 2023 and continued in the first quarter of this year, but there has now been no load-shedding, as South Africans call the cuts, for 48 straight days, the longest period for more than two years. Over the same 48-day period last year, there were power cuts every day, according to data collected by The Outlier, an independent South African publication specialising in public service data visualisations.
