Welcome to countdown. We are encroaching on ¥100 to the dollar but we are keeping a close eye on where this next leg in the dollar goes.

A witness says the child suffered injuries to his neck and back and was bleeding very badly. The local Wildlife Agencies want this animal caught because its likely hell attack again.
