Berlin's zoo is celebrating the 67th birthday of Fatou the gorilla, its oldest resident, who it believes is also the oldest gorilla in the world. Fatou was born in 1957 and came to the zoo in what was then West Berlin in 1959. She lives in an enclosure of her own and prefers to keep her distance from the zoo's other gorillas in her old age.
