Arghh! Even the best newspapers can't get it right!

I know I said I'm (almost) done with apostrophes, but this one caught my eye today.

From a caption under a photo in The Telegraph:

"The Louvre Abu Dhabi opened it's first permanent collection to the public April 21. It is the largest of France's overseas cultural project."

The odd thing is that when I typed the first sentence, autocorrect didn't change my correct its to the erroneous it's.  A writer must have made that slip.

Can you see another error in the caption?

(Sorry for the earlier mistake I made when I incorrectly named The Guardian instead of The Telegraph as the source of the above errors).
