I'm very skeptical about Koko the gorilla allegedly being "smarter" than the average East Africans. They have built complex tools, like all humans. Gorillas have constructed nothing compared to what even some of the dumbest societies of the human race can build, despite having opposable thumbs and feet.

Something is wrong here, and it may be down to sampling issues like what led to Richard Lynn giving Nepal an average IQ of 42. Or Koko doesn't have an IQ of 75-95 (which on the higher end would mean that gorilla even has a higher IQ than the average serb, LMAO).

I don't deny sub-Saharan genotypic IQ is around 80.

Koko is the greatest pop science fraud of the last couple of decades. It's total anthropomorphic wishful thinking, generous interpretation from her handlers and scenarios designed to pull at heart strings. Read her AOL 'chat' and it's just gibberish. There's no objective, independent confirmartion she could sign in a way that indicates language comprehension it's just made up gibberish by the gorilla version of cat ladies.
