I was more concerned about the kittens but you have a point.

I was only reading about this yesterday. Part of me doesn't like the idea, but the reality is, Koko lives in captivity, and anything that stimulates her can only be a good thing. Presumably, even though she's technically a wild animal, there must be no perceived risk to the kittens.

She knows no other life. She's amazing. She has had one carer, a professor, pretty much her entire life.

The only thing in favour of her captivity is that she is safe from poachers.
