Jane Whitewood, assistant keeper, with gorilla Bukhama
Gorilla visited by keeper he mauled ? Smiling bravely with ?King Kong? looking over her shoulder. RMS Jane Whitewood was making friends again yesterday with Bukhama, the gorilla which broke both her legs at Dudley Zoo last September. An assistant keeper, Mrs. Whitewood, who hopes to be back at work in the spring, will not have said against him. He mauled her, she said, in self-defence. Despite the friendly pose, Bukhama was unable to place a hand on his keeper?s shoulder, there is a thick glass between them. AM/Keystone
