Koko the Gorilla plays with her kitten, All Ball

I'm not usually a very emotional person, but this made me teary.

Sad :(

Don't be so ignorant panictactics. Koko was taught sign language since she was a baby by the Dr. shown in the video. Now she more than 40 years old (Koko). You don't need a voice to communicate, its called sign language.They show the whole film in the Anthropology course at my University, maybe you should attend one sometime.

I'll be interested to know how a goddamn gorilla can name a cat if it can't f-ing speak. Shouldn't the bastard cat be named 'grunt' or something?

If I remember right Koko was successfully taught sign language and also communicated through the help of symbols and computer screen.

LMFAOOOOOOOOOOO

i love koko..

Made me cry

This goes against the stereotype that gorillas are violent, brutal beings. Chimpanzees are more likely to attack a human than a gorilla.

How cute and touching!
