Maggie, the oldest chimpanzee in San Francisco Zoo, died of cancer at age 56.
As the oldest female, she was matriarch of the chimpanzee clan, mediating disputes between younger animals. She liked to make elaborate nests from blankets, always choosing brightest colors (chimps, like humans, have full color vision).
Rest in peace, cousin.
