Caesar, a 4ft fibreglass gorilla, has found a new home in London after being evicted from his previous residence in Wakefield, West Yorkshire.
The primate was adopted by long-haul travel specialists Flight Centre and is now taking pride of place at their store on South Molton Street in London's Mayfair district.
Caesar's new owner, Flight Centre, took the gorilla on a scenic route to his new residence, posing at iconic landmarks such as Big Ben, Downing Street, and Piccadilly Circus.
Flight Centre's general manager, Joe Beevis, said, "We send nature lovers to see wildlife in Africa every year, so when we heard Caesar needed a new home, it felt like the natural fit. Caesar is a reminder that the best wildlife encounters are live ones."
Caesar's welfare was taken extremely seriously during the journey from Wakefield, and upon arrival in London, he was given a tour of the city. He is now adjusting to Mayfair life and has developed strong opinions about the air conditioning at his new home.
Adele Teale, Caesar's previous owner, said she was delighted that he had found a new habitat and is confident that he will be properly looked after by Flight Centre.
Caesar's fans can visit him in person at Flight Centre's store on South Molton Street, Mayfair. In celebration of his arrival, Flight Centre is offering 10% off selected Africa Tours with Intrepid Travel for a limited time.
Adele added that Caesar will not be in London forever, but is currently enjoying his new surroundings. She was glad to be there to hand him over in person and knows that he will be looked after by Flight Centre, who care about animal welfare.
