CINCINNATI — A new gorilla is making himself at home at the Cincinnati Zoo.
The zoo recently added a 29-year-old western lowland silverback gorilla named Mshindi from the Louisville Zoo.
He’s the first gorilla added to the exhibit since the 2016 death of Harambe, who was killed by zoo officials after a 3-year-old boy climbed into his enclosure.
