Does no one care?

Yes, we care. (However, you did post at 3AM and 6AM in the U.S.; most of us were asleep!)

It's always sad when the animals lose a champion. I hope someone steps up to continue his work.

Oh how sad. I know how much you love Monkey world. RIP Mr. Cronin. I hope they find someone just as wonderful to replace him.
