Koko the gorilla forced to be Jewish

Koko, a gorilla who uses sign language to speak and has a vocabulary of over a thousand words, is shown below eating Matzos (unleavened bread) in observance of the Jewish holiday of Passover.

Koko told reporters, using sign language:

"I'm a gentile, not a Jew. My forefathers weren't enslaved by Pharaoh in Egypt, they were about 2000 miles south, swinging by vines and beating their chests like maniacs. I'm an atheist. I don't see why I should have to partake in these antiquated religious rituals. I mean, have you ever tried eating Matzos for a whole week? Jesus Christ, WOULD SOMEONE PLEASE SMUGGLE ME IN A HAM AND CHEASE SANDWICH!"
