Koko Enjoys the Garden

Join Koko on the grounds of her home in the Santa Cruz mountains, where she had the freedom to go outdoors whenever she pleased. Watch as she enjoys freshly picked strawberries from the garden, graciously sharing a taste with Penny.
The fun continues as Koko cools off, drinking from a garden hose and playfully running her hand through the water, while watering the plants.
This video shows the unique bond between Koko and Penny, and illustrates the autonomy that Koko enjoyed. If she wanted to spend some time outside, she simply asked.
Filmed in 2003 by Dr. Ron Cohn (Koko age 32).

I cannot believe that you’ve left us! I can’t or won’t believe it! I always watch a video such as this one or an article or Tahoe on you! You remind me of the monkey I had in Ecuador and wonder how much more I could have taught him. We will play freely with you, Koko someday,🦍❤

I have a feeling penny was destroyed by this loss. Anyone heard from her since 2018?
