A gregarious male gorilla at the Dallas Zoo will be sent to South Carolina for therapy after he bit one female gorilla and sneered at others, zoo officials said on Monday.

Patrick, a 430-pound Western lowland gorilla,will be movingto the Riverbanks Zoo and Gardens in Columbia, South Carolina, where he will live the bachelor life in his own digs.

The South Carolina zoo is known for working with gorillas with behavior problems.

Dallas Zoo officials said Patrick gets along fine with humans but not with other gorillas.

They said they have tried repeatedly to socialize him with the other gorillas, particularly the females, in the hopes that he might get along and even breed. Instead, he bit one female and sneered at others.

He's clearly out of the females' league.

I know where he's coming from. Do you think they want me to go talk to him?

is there such term as humanophile; or if a gorilla wants to hump humans rather than his own specie you would call him zoophile?

Monkeys are weird. Ever seen that youtube video of a chimp mouth-raping a frog?

I'm pretty sure sexiest doesn't include biting members of the opposite sex. Unless the term has been broadened since I last looked.
