"Kentucky Groundhog Major Passes Away After Predicting Early Spring"
Major, a Kentucky groundhog known for predicting the weather on Groundhog Day, passed away from heart issues just days after forecasting an early spring. The nearly 10-year-old rodent had been living at the Second Chances Wildlife Center, where he was a beloved fixture for a decade. Despite his passing, Major's legacy lives on as he passed the prediction task to his younger friend, Josie Burrow, who made the forecast for an early spring this year.
