TIL about a Baboon called Coporal Jackie - he was a mascot of the South Afrifcan Army during WW1 and went to war with his owner. He was shot in the shoulder, had his right leg blown off and eventually died in a home fire. en.wikipedia.org Submitted by Jinkzuk t3_zsibm0 on December 22, 2022 at 9:55 AM in todayilearned 10 comments 93
