Gorilla Statue’s Final Journey to London
Description
A Yorkshire woman’s beloved 4-foot gorilla statue, Caesar, has finally been removed after a two-decade saga with local authorities — but not without a twist. Faced with a £20,000 fine or legal action, Adele fought hard to keep her quirky companion, who’d stood guard outside her home since 2008. The council deemed him “out of character” for the neighborhood, citing planning rules that applied to his size, permanence, and placement. After exhausting appeals, Caesar was spirited away by a “Gorilla Adoption Team” — headed to London for a while, which Adele says suits his personality. While it’s the end of an era, she’s found peace in the statue’s new adventure.
