Bobby's Dead

No, not Bobby -

- Bobby.
London Zoo's Western Lowland Gorilla was found dead on Friday morning by his keepers. He was just 25, and since meeting his two new girlfriends he had been VERY sexually active. Without result, unfortunately. Perhaps that was what caused the poor boy's demise.
Two visits ago - when he was crapping into his own hand between his legs, pasting it on the window and then licking it off - I did say the shit was not a healthy-looking colour.
Last visit, he was unwell and under the vet's care, taking antibiotics.
Now he's gone.
No doubt the zoo will introduce the females on Gorilla Island to a new male at some future date. I just hope he treats them as well as this gentle giant.

  2. Well, his oldest girlfriend is 34. I believe they can live longer in captivity.
