Howler Monkeys Fall Dead From Trees in Mexico Amid Severe Heat Wave

A severe heatwave is affecting Mexico, Central America, and parts of the U.S. South, causing extreme temperatures that have left millions of people struggling to cope. According to meteorologists, this phenomenon is attributed to a "heat dome", a high-pressure weather pattern that has led to excessive heat in these regions. The situation is particularly dire in Mexico, where 147 howler monkeys have died due to the heat, and at least 22 human fatalities have been reported between May 12th and 21st as a result of heat-related causes.
