Hiii, name is Koko, Im 51 years old, I was born in San Francisco zoo, on the 4th of July, exactly!! on Independence day
I learned sign language from dr. Penny Patterson when I was a baby, after I moved to the Stanford University Campus with Dr. Patterson, our relationship was great.
I knew more than 1000 words and invented new ones, but I didn't know the sign of the ring so I signed the words finger and bracelet
At Christmas, they gave me a cat called All Ball, I loved him too much, I took care of him as if he were my own son, but one day he got out of my cage and he was run over, I suffered much
Some people do not agree with what the doctor does, they think that what I do is just tricks or that they are humanizing me, but I am happy with the doctor and in my foundation where I live
the doctor would love to take me to a reserve for apes, but she is having problems securing the place, for the time being I will continue to live with the doctor in Woodland, California, but I don't care, I am happy here, and I don't care what they say people, because they don´t know that i know to use social networks
