One of my favorite celebrities is Koko, a highly intelligent and sweet female gorilla in her 40s. She can express her feelings and accurately describe the events around her, as they unfold, to her caregivers through sign language. Koko has favorite celebrities, too—Betty White and William Shatner.
Koko is also an excellent caregiver. She has a fondness for kittens, which she handles gently and with great affection. She has communicated her desire for a baby of her own with her handlers. They are currently assisting Koko with her goal by providing a male mate, or perhaps artificial insemination.
It's impossible not to be charmed by Kokos' kindness and her sense of humor. If you are plugged into social media, the updates are a cute uplift to your day. I'm certain you will become as big a fan as I am.
Please show your support for the foundations' incredible research by visiting the websites below. Let's help spread the word through sharing their wonderful, fun world with others. As Koko would say, that would be most "polite".
