People dress as cows and parade through the alleyways and courtyards of the Kathmandu Durbar Square, a UNESCO World Heritage site, in Kathmandu, Nepal, on August 10, 2025, to commemorate their loved ones who have passed away within a year, praying for their salvation. Dressed as cows, who are on a brief pilgrimage to give salvation to the souls of their departed loved ones, thousands of people march through Basantapur Durbar Square, marking the annual festival of Gai Jatra. In this time-honored tradition, people of all ages, in the guise of cows and lunatics, go around the city wearing odd costumes to commemorate those who have died within the past year. Bereaved families offer fruits, bread, beaten rice, curd, and money to those participating in the procession, including the cows. This festival of cows, commonly called ''Gai Jatra'' or the ''Cow Festival,'' falls on the first day of the waning moon in the month of Bhadra (Bhadra Sukla Pratipada), the fifth month of the Lunar calendar. It is mostly observed by the Newari and Tharu communities of Nepal. According to sayings, the festival derives its name from the religious belief that the deceased, during their journey to heaven, cross a legendary river by grabbing the tail of a cow. The tails of cows demonstrated today are also credited for helping the deceased to get across Baitarni, a legendary river, to enter heaven. The persons who are demonstrated with the attire of a cow also have an artificial tail, which serves the same purpose.

Authorities believe they find the body of 2-year-old Montrell Williams near Ferry Point Park off the Whitestone Bridge, in Bronx, New York, United States, on June 11, 2025. An unidentified juvenile is discovered in the East River, and police say it appears to be the body of the 2-year-old boy from the Bronx who has been missing for a month. The body, described as a male approximately 2 years old, is found by an NYPD Harbor unit on patrol, near Ferry Point Park off the Whitestone Bridge on Wednesday. Authorities say it appears to be missing Bronx boy Montrell Williams, but a positive identification will have to be made. The discovery of the body comes the same day the father of the missing 2-year-old is named a person of interest in the child's disappearance. Detectives have reason to believe the 20-year-old father throws him into the Bronx River, near the Bruckner Expressway.
