New Jersey Town Cancels Groundhog Day Event AFTER THE GROUNDHOG DIED!

A Town Had to Cancel Its Groundhog Day Event After Its Groundhog Died!

 Punxsutawney Phil is the groundhog everyone pays attention to.

However lots of other towns have their own weather-predicting rodents. Including Milltown, New Jersey.  (Milltown is about halfway between New York City and Trenton.) They've got a groundhog named Milltown Mel who also predicts if it'll be an early spring. But they had to cancel their event this year . . .

because Mel just DROPPED DEAD!

They announced his death on Facebook and said they couldn't find a replacement groundhog in time. So they had no choice but to cancel the event. The good news is they say Mel lived a pretty long life for a groundhog. 

His exact age isn't clear, but they only live around three years in the wild.
