LinkLinks Washington Post: Aged gibbon, seeker of attention, keeper favorite, dies at National Zoo By Editor On Sep 30, 2018 57 Share She was a distant cousin to all of us, but she was old, perhaps the oldest of her kind in America, and on Friday, the National Zoo’s white-cheeked gibbon was euthanized. Named Muneca, she was born in Cambodia, came to the zoo in 1999, and at 51, the zoo said, she was the oldest white-cheeked gibbon in the Association of Zoos and Aquariums’ Species Survival Plan population.
