The best vocabulary Fact 27

From the age of one, Koko a Gorilla living in San Francisco Zoo in the USA, has been learning how to communicate with people. It is claimed that Koko can understand around 2000 spoken words in English and can sign herself over 1000 words using American sign language. Koko's IQ is thought to be between 70 and 95, which is pretty smart considering a normal IQ for a person is around 100. Koko is now 37 years old and her favorite pastimes include playing with dolls and drawing. 

Robin Williams pops by to say hello to Koko, he's instantly taken by her calm and love.
