Thanks for the link WS. Just seen it on the news tonight. I had no idea a chimp could live to be that old.

I heard this on the radio travelling back home yesterday. It is sad, I remember well watching the old black and white Tarzan movies. I didnt realise Cheeta was still alive.

RIP Cheeta

I didn't realise they could live that long either, I thought it was 60 - 65 . There seems a bit of controversy over whether this is the same chimp that starred in the films. I'm going to believe the report that it is Cheetah. I loved the old Tarzan films too and also the old series that was on the TV.

RIP Cheetah xxx
