The White House sparked controversy on social media with a message dedicated to Harambe, the gorilla who was fatally shot on May 28, 2016, after a child entered his enclosure at the Cincinnati Zoo.


The message was published on what would have been the gorilla's 27th birthday and describes Harambe as 'a true patriot' and 'an icon' of American culture. The incident generated an international debate about safety in zoos and led to a wave of viral reactions, including memes and online tributes.


The White House highlighted the cultural impact of Harambe's story, stating that he has become a symbol of loyalty and unity. The message concludes with an emotional note, promising that Harambe will never be forgotten. Donald Trump also commented on the incident, stating that the decision to shoot the gorilla was necessary to protect the child's life.
