Prague zoo gorilla hangs himself

Tragedy struck the zoo in 2002 when unprecedented floods hit the Czech
capital and the zoo, located by the Vltava River, killing several animals
including a gorilla named Pong.

The breeders arrived belatedly to try to save the beast that the herd and
above all the mother were still trying to protect.

The zoo has however spearheaded projects to protect the endangered species,
such as by raising money for the Dja gorilla reserve in Cameroon. It hosts a
gorilla news website that accepts donations.
