The male chimpanzee who lived in the Zoobotanical 21 years, 'Guillermo', died early Feb. 28 in a surprise for acute heart failure. It was a huge loss for caregivers and the team of Zoo and for visitors to the facility as nobody expected such a sad ending. Zoobotanical has lived in Jerez, 21 of the 33 years of life she led.
Andalucía Day very early caretakers found him apparently asleep, notifying the veterinarian who was only able to verify his death. Even after the necropsy checks in the first instance, who have suffered acute heart failure, shortly after the relevant test results shall be reported causes of death.
'William' had a very special, very introverted and with great reservations about giving away your friendship with someone. It was hard to have confidence, because the painful experiences suffered in the past with humans. Even when engaging in any activity he had learned, makes it a little hidden and never openly shows interest in something.
spent much time on his arrival at Zoobotanical clinical treatment and management, to help overcome the defects caused by his long stay in a small room, deprived of care and above all friendly. Chimpanzees are very social but William was slow to engage in play and grooming sessions. Also cost manipulate objects and perform activities like drawing or cracking nuts with stones, sticks to feed even use honey and other similar activities. His character steadily improved by increasing their confidence gradually.
From Zoo is the only consolation that there was more to improve their situation, happiness, confidence ... and thanks to the care of the caretakers and technicians of this, William was able to live a happy life with your family Lola and Lulu, two female chimpanzees from Zoo.
From "Animal", much to encourage this Jerez Zoobotanical great loss.
