Ivan (gorilla) (original) (raw)

About DBpedia

Ivan was a western lowland gorilla born in 1962 in what is now the Democratic Republic of the Congo. He was captured from the wild as a baby and brought to live with humans. For the first few years of his life he lived with his owners, but he soon grew too big for a human house and they moved him to a 14' x 14' concrete enclosure on display to the public at the B&I shopping center in Tacoma, Washington, where he spent the next 27 years of his life.

dbo:abstract Ivan was a western lowland gorilla born in 1962 in what is now the Democratic Republic of the Congo. He was captured from the wild as a baby and brought to live with humans. For the first few years of his life he lived with his owners, but he soon grew too big for a human house and they moved him to a 14' x 14' concrete enclosure on display to the public at the B&I shopping center in Tacoma, Washington, where he spent the next 27 years of his life. After local animal welfare organizations successfully campaigned for his release to a facility that could care for Ivan properly, in 1994 he was placed at Woodland Park Zoo in Seattle. Shortly after this, he was placed on permanent loan to Zoo Atlanta in Atlanta, Georgia. He spent his remaining years at Zoo Atlanta and died from complications during a medical procedure in August 2012. Ivan's story was fictionalized in the 2012 book, The One and Only Ivan, by Katherine Applegate, which was adapted into a 2020 film of the same name. (en) Ivan est un gorille des plaines de l'Ouest né en 1962 dans l'actuelle République démocratique du Congo. Il est capturé dans la nature alors qu'il est bébé, puis « sauvé », est amené vivre avec des humains. Pendant les premières années de sa vie, il vit avec ses propriétaires, mais son imposante croissance oblige à trouver une autre solution. Il est ainsi placé dans une enceinte en béton exposée au public d'un centre commercial à Tacoma, aux États-Unis, où il passe 27 ans. Après une campagne sur les conditions de vie de l'animal par des organisations locales de protection des animaux, il est placé en 1994 dans un établissement capable de prendre soin de lui correctement, au Woodland Park Zoo de Seattle. Peu de temps après, il est prêté indéfiniment au Zoo d'Atlanta, en Géorgie. Il y passe ses dernières années jusqu'à sa mort en août 2012. L'histoire d'Ivan est romancée dans le livre The One and Only Ivan (2012) de Katherine Alice Applegate, qui est adapté en film sous le nom Le Seul et Unique Ivan (2020). (fr)
