Betty the Dublin Zoo chimpanzee has died
Never realised she was still alive all these years. Always was the highlight of very frequent visits to the zoo in the 70's as we were told she was named after our aunt Betty - and the fun we had when aunt betty came along with us was off the wall
I'm told by a zoo fanatic that she is the chimp sitting on the right in this archive footage of the tea parties (I think they ended in late 60's) https://www.rte.ie/archives/2012/0906/336505-chimpanzee-tea-party/
RIP
