During her break in May 2022, Usada Pekora adopted a Senegal bushbaby which she named Jill, a.k.a. Jill-kun

Bushbabies are nocturnal primates (basically a tiny monkey) and make terrible pets for reasons like:
- crying out at night when people are sleeping
>"they have unpleasant habits like crying out in the night… they make loud baby-like sounds that can wake the dead!"
>https://petkeen.com/do-bush-babies-make-good-pets/
- pissing all over their hands and transferring that to every surface they touch
>"They are also territory markers that urinate on their hands to spread their scent around and that stuff stinks!"
>https://petkeen.com/do-bush-babies-make-good-pets/
- suffering mentally when they are alone
>"Without regular interaction with other bush babies, they are prone to becoming fearful, irritable, and developmentally stunted in captivity."
>https://a-z-animals.com/blog/do-bush-babies-make-good-pets/
- being ground zero for Covid-22
>"Bush-babies are sometimes kept as pets, although this is not advised because, like many other nonhuman primates, they are a likely sources of diseases that can cross species barriers."
>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galago
Pekora is also uniquely set up to make the situation worse, because:
- her loud streaming during the day will destroy its sleep
>"They have such awesome hearing that when they sleep throughout the day, they need to fold up their ears to cover their ear holes. This prevents the sounds of the forest from waking them up."
>https://www.monkeysanctuary.co.za/blog/79-bush-babies-10-facts
- she owns 2 young cats, which are natural predators of bushbabies
>"Predators include mongooses, genets, jackals, domestic dogs and cats, owls, and snakes."

Use this thread to discuss when and how you expect Jill to meet his untimely end. Speculation about Pekora's subsequent reaction and if/how she will publicly announce his demise is also welcome.
Any Jill-kun sightings or mentions can also be brought up, and are a good source for us to gauge his current well-being and estimate his remaining mortality.
