Kyko
Kyko is a male chimpanzee who was used as a photographer’s prop in Spain. He arrived at the park on 05/07/91 and he was born during 1987. His previous owner in Spain dragged him around on roller skates, which did not fit his feet and, as a result, Kyko was crippled when he first arrived in the park. With proper exercise, Kyko’s feet and legs are fine now and he is a very sociable chimp that gets along with all the others.
Gordon
Gordon was born on 09/12/97 at Monkey World. He’s Amy’s son but was born prematurely and had to spend the first month of his life in an incubator. The keepers cared for Gordon when he was first born but he has now been reintroduced to his mother and all the other orangutans.
