Sad news from Edinburgh Zoo
« on: January 31, 2012, 01:39:54 pm »
Ricky (my favourite) the oldest animal at Edinburgh Zoo has passed away yesterday afternoon.  He was a lovely lad with lots of character.  I'm glad I got to see him at Christmas.

He was lovely, and very popular. 50 is a very good age.

The keepers and other chimpanzees will miss him terribly, he sounds like a lovely old boy and that is a good age, he was very handsome.
