Written by Abby, a chimpanzee who has spent the last 38 years at the Detroit Zoo, has died, zoo officials announced on Thursday. She was 42. Zoo officials say Abby was “compassionately euthanized this week following a decline in her health related to kidney failure.” “Our veterinary and animal care teams worked closely to keep her comfortable throughout her care, and the decision was made with deep love and respect for her quality of life,” officials said.
