WOODSIDE, Calif. (AP) _ There's a settlement in a lawsuit by two former caretakers who refused to show their breasts to a gorilla.
The women had filed a lawsuit against the Gorilla Foundation, near San Francisco. They claimed they were fired after they refused to expose their breasts to the 33-year-old, 300-pound female gorilla named Koko, who can understand some sign language. According to the lawsuit, they were told they should expose their breasts as a way to bond with Koko, who was described as having a "nipple fetish." The foundation has denied the allegations. Lawyers aren't revealing the terms of the settlement.A second similar lawsuit filed by another employee is still pending.
Here’s the story from KVOA TV in Tuscon.
