Two former caretakers who refused to bare their breasts to a 300lb (136kg) sign language-speaking gorilla named Koko have settled a lawsuit against the Gorilla Foundation. Nancy Alperin and Kendra Keller said that they were dismissed after they refused to expose their bosoms and reported sanitary problems at Kokos home in Woodside, south of San Francisco. They were told that if they did not indulge Kokos nipple fetish, their employment with the Gorilla Foundation would suffer, their claim alleged. Ms Alperin and Ms Keller said that Francine Patterson, Kokos caretaker and president of the Gorilla Foundation, pushed them to bare their breasts to bond with the 33-year-old female simian. The foundation has denied the allegations. The settlements terms were not disclosed.

    I suspect that if you get a few minutes alone with Koko, she will tell you in very animated sign language...that Francine is a lesbian with a "nipple fetish".
 
To: Millee
    did not indulge Kokos nipple fetish...WTF?
