A federal judge in San Francisco has ruled the male silverback gorilla loaned to a California group in 1991 as a possible mate for Koko, the gorilla who learned sign language, must be returned to a Cincinnati zoo. District Judge Richard Seeborg’s ruling Friday, Feb. 1, 2019, says a 2015 agreement between the Cincinnati Zoo &amp; Botanical Garden and Gorilla Foundation to return Ndume after Koko’s death must be enforced. Koko died in June at age 46. (Ron Evans/Cincinnati Zoo and Botanical Garden via AP)

In this 2016 photo provided by the Cincinnati Zoo and Botanical Garden, the silverback gorilla Ndume picks up a toy at The Gorilla Foundation's preserve in California's Santa Cruz mountains. The zoo that's suing the conservatory for the return of the gorilla has asked a judge to rule in the zoo's favor without going to trial. Zoo officials claim Ndume has since lived in isolation to his detriment, while the foundation says a transfer would harm him and pose unnecessary risk.
