Old ass gorilla dies

TORONTO — It is with great sadness that I report the passing of Samantha, the Toronto Zoo’s oldest gorilla. Samantha was euthanized this week after suffering two serious strokes. She leaves behind five offspring and her loving mate Charles the Silverback.
Gorillas age faster than humans. Their lifespan is only 30-50 years, and Samantha was only 37-years-old — still in the prime of her life. If she was a human woman, she would be about the same age as Samantha Jones from Sex and the City.
