Robin Williams once shared a heartwarming moment with Koko, the gorilla known for her ability to understand over 2,000 words and use 1,000 signs in sign language. Their bond was instant, with both showing deep affection and laughter. When Koko was later told of Robin’s death, she responded with the signs “CRY” and “LIP,” then became quiet and visibly emotional, bowing her head and quivering. The moment showed Koko’s emotional intelligence — and how deeply Robin’s presence touched even non-humans

Koko was a female gorilla capable of communicating through sign language, and she gave a beautiful message that surprised everyone. Subscribe to our YouTube channel: http://bit.ly/yt-thekiwi | The Kiwi

Koko's Kitten Playdate... In this archival footage, Koko meets and plays with one of her many pet kittens. These clips show Koko as she first introduces herself to the cat, cuddles with him, and carries him around to show him features of her room such as her full-length mirror. Her ability to gently and purposefully share experiences with her kittens demonstrates her empathy and capacity to form meaningful friendships with any species. | Koko & The Gorilla Foundation
