I don’t know if this is true, but I heard her handlers tried many times to get her to hook up with a male gorilla, but she never mated with any of them.  She would sign to them, things like “walk up my bottom“ (which is as good as any porn dialog I’ve ever heard), but obviously they didn’t understand.




One day, a keeper asked Koko what sort of mate she would prefer.  Koko pointed to a shirtless grounds worker.




I’d like to think it was true.  I also wish I could have had an hour or so of private time with Koko.  Not only was she a symbol of intellect, but also of the capacity for love.




You know, I've heard every part of that story but the shirtless groundworker part.




It makes perfect sense though.




and wow, I got news from this place that is relevant to my interests...  cool.  I mean except for her dying.  That's tragic.  and now I'm sad.




Don't you guys have like, puppy news or something?
