Germans agog over tightrope walking gorilla. The new gorilla at the Krefeld zoo went through a period of depression, then started practicing on the rope much to everybody’s delight. It’s Hogan’s Heroes all over again – the Germans never seem to recognize an escape attempt until it’s too late.

Yes, this is the population that was in love with a prophetic Octopus.
Why are they surprised? We have a puppet that plays golf!
No-one has EVER escaped from Krefeld Zoo!
I see NOTHING!
