On November 28th, Samson the gorilla died of a heart attack at the age of 
32.  Samson was, perhaps, the most famous animal in the history of the 
Milwaukee County Zoo.  Throughout his time at the Zoo, Samson became famous 
for his stare.  He became accustomed to the public, but periodically was 
aroused by unfamiliar things like large hats or brightly colored clothing.  
In his 32 years, the strong Samson cracked the viewing window to his 
enclosure on four separate occasions.

Thanks for the memory Alan.
