Trump Jr. emails suggest he welcomed Russian help against Clinton
By Andy Sullivan and Arshad Mohammed WASHINGTON (Reuters) - President Donald Trump's eldest son eagerly agreed last year to meet a woman he was told was a Russian government lawyer who might have damaging information about Democratic White House rival Hillary Clinton as part of Moscow's official support for his father, according to emails released on Tuesday. The emails, released by Donald Trump Jr., are the most concrete evidence yet that Trump campaign officials welcomed Russian help to win the election, a subject that has cast a cloud over Trump's presidency and spurred investigations by the Justice Department and Congress.

Can you spot the sneaky leopard hiding in the tree?
Leopards are experts when it comes to staying hidden, but there was really no need for this big cat to be so shy in front of the camera. German wildlife photographer Ingo Gerlach, who has almost 40 years experience, captured the impressive shot at the Maasai Mara game reserve in Kenya. But can you spot the leopard? Your eyes may be immediately drawn to the unlucky impala hanging from the tree branches, but take a closer look and you’ll spot the hidden killer. Did you spot the leopard?

This results in images that are unique. And that is saying something in today's flood of images,” Gerlach explains on his website [translated]. Astudy published in the Journal of Animal Ecology in April examined in further detail why leopards hoist their food into trees. “Leopards exhibit a unique form of short-term food caching, regularly hoisting, storing and consuming prey in trees,” researchers explained. “Leopards hoisted 51% of kills. They were more likely to hoist kills of an intermediate size ... and in response to the presence of some competitors.” They said the prey was most likely to be eaten by hyaenas if left on the ground, using data from 2032 prey items killed by 104 leopards from 2013 to 2015. Gerlach has captured a number of impressive ‘spot the animal’ photos published in the media. You can see more of his work on Facebook.
