CashCall: In the Jan. 25 Business section, an article and photo caption about a lending company penalized for violating consumer protection laws referred to the company as CashCall Mortgage. The company penalized is CashCall, a personal lender. CashCall Mortage is a separate entity with different ownership.

Garamba National Park: In the Dec. 22 Section A, an article on the killing of a wildlife ranger in the Democratic Republic of Congo referred to the presence of white rhinoceroses in Garamba National Park. The northern white rhino, considered critically endangered, is no longer found in the park. Only three such animals are left, living in captivity in Kenya.

Migrants in Europe: In Section A of the edition of March 5, 2017, an article about migrants stranded in Serbia said that threatening letters from the Taliban targeting Afghan refugee Tariq Stanikzay were posted on the wall of a mosque in his home village in 2013, and that Stanikzay tore up one of them. In fact, the letters were sent starting in 2011. One letter was posted at a mosque while another was delivered to Stanikzay’s family’s farm, and neither was destroyed. The errors came to light during legal proceedings in the Netherlands, where Stanikzay is seeking asylum.
