Catherine, the Little Rock Zoo’s 42-year-old gorilla and oldest resident, died on February 8, 2026, after being euthanized due to heart failure and fluid in her lungs.
Zoo staff had observed declining health in late January, including shortness of breath and hand swelling.
Born in 1983, she lived at the zoo since 2004 and was known for surviving a stroke in 2020, becoming one of the longest-surviving gorilla stroke survivors.
The zoo honored her life and contributions to conservation and animal care.
