A gorilla at a zoo in Dublin, Ireland, died after a short illness, the zoo said on Monday.
Harry, a Western lowland gorilla who lead the zoo’s troop, was 29 years old and fathered six children, reported the Irish Mirror.
The Dublin Zoo shared the news on Facebook on Monday---just two days after another Western lowland gorilla was shot and killed at the Cincinnati Zoo after a 4-year-old child fell into its enclosure.
“Some very sad news from Dublin Zoo,” the zoo wrote in the post. “After a short illness, Harry, the Western lowland gorilla at Dublin Zoo, died yesterday morning 29th May.”
