Timmy has moved to the Louisville Zoo, along with two female members of his troop, after 25 years in the Bronx. Handlers hope the move will stimulate the 45-year-old silverback's legendary libido, the New York Daily News said. Advertisement His many offspring includes a rare set of twins. It's a return to the Midwest for Timmy, who first came to the Bronx in 1991 after 25 years at the Cleveland Metroparks Zoo. The Louisville Zoo's $15 million Gorilla Forest exhibit opened May 23, 2002, with 12 gorillas on loan from the Lincoln Park Zoo in Chicago.
