This made me cry when I heard about her passing, Koko was a beautiful soul, so precious.
R.I.P lovely lady, I hope you enjoyed your life as much as we enjoyed getting to know you.
I did a paper on gorillas in High School. Koko was a huge part of it. In college (my first round) I studied zoology. I am originally from the SF Bay area and was able to go to the Gorilla Foundation Reserve in college during a visit to friends and actually see Koko in person. It was super cool and what an amazing facility.
Busch Gardens here in Tampa also has a great gorilla habitat that allows for very up close viewing. Amazing creatures.
