Koko the Gorilla Rocks Out on a Bass That Belongs to Flea of the Red Hot Chili Peppers

While visiting the Gorilla Foundation in Northern California, Flea from the Red Hot Chili Peppers loaned his bass to the amazing Koko. As with everything else she does, the incomparable gorilla took only a few moments to figure out how to play the instrument. Looks like Flea may be playing second fiddle (or bass) to Koko.

My sweet and true friend Koko rocks a flea bass like it ain’t nuthin – FLEA
