        As many scientific articles and papers she was part of and as much contribution to science she added, I think she is worth being honored as a professor Koko the least for her legacy. 🎓

        I'll always remember that interaction she had with Robin Williams. Made me realize how little difference there can be between us at times. RIP😇

        If they are intelligent enough to know how to communicate in a language, then they are intelligent enough to understand captivity. Consider that, the next time you visit your local zoo.

        .@CBSNews Koko did not “master” a linguistically rich sign language. It wasn’t a language she could elaborate or carry on a convo in. She was able to mimic a few sign gestures, that’s it.

        This is such sad news. I am surprised that Koko died at such a young age at 46...

        I think that’s amazing. Sign language, although GREAT for humans, is not gorilla language... perhaps it caused ‘stress’? 46years? Only? I’ve seen birds pull feathers out, from learning/talking too much English language. Poor gorrilla😞
