And now they got Choppers! ''Twycross Zoo is saddened to announce the death on Wednesday 20th April of one of its elderly female chimpanzees, Choppers. This well-known and much-loved chimp is believed to be one of the **last surviving stars from the PG Tips adverts,** which ran from the 1960s to the 1980s. Choppers was rescued from poachers in Liberia by a British couple who then brought her to be cared for at Twycross Zoo. Aged 48, Choppers had spent her later years in a large, natural chimp group where she could live out her days in the company of her fellow chimps. She was known for her gentle nature and loved grooming other chimps and interacting with her keepers, whom she was always excited to see. A documentary broadcast in January 2015 on Channel 5 told the nostalgic story of Choppers and the “tea chimps”, bringing back fond memories of the chimps, whose antics were so popular with TV audiences. Choppers recently became ill, showing signs of heart and liver failure, and despite the best efforts of the zoo’s veterinary team her health declined and the difficult decision to put her to sleep was made on Wednesday. Choppers was a much-loved member of Twycross Zoo’s chimpanzee group and she will be sadly missed by all staff at the zoo, as well as her numerous fans.’’ ---

From the pix I’ve seen Choppers looked like the first _transgender tea chimp_. An expression you will probably never read again in your life - but one that you won’t be able to forget. ---
