The world's first gorilla born in a zoo, a female named Colo who became the oldest known living #gorilla in the U.S., has died at age 60, the @Columbus_Zoo announced today.
.
#Colo died in her sleep overnight, less than a month after her birthday. She surpassed the usual life expectancy of captive gorillas by two decades.
.
"Colo touched the hearts of generations of people who came to see her and those that cared for her over her long lifetime," zoo president Tom Stalf said in a statement. "She was an ambassador for gorillas and inspired people to learn more about the critically endangered species and motivated them to protect gorillas in their native habitat."
.
Colo was born at the zoo on Dec. 22, 1956. She eventually became a mother of three, grandmother of 16, great-grandmother of 12 and great-great-grandmother of three.
