About: Harambe (statue)

The Harambe statue is a seven-foot-tall sculpture of the deceased western lowland gorilla Harambe in bronze which suddenly appeared on Monday October 18, 2021, on Wall Street, New York City, New York, facing the Charging Bull statue. Beneath Charging Bull were 10,000 bananas (later donated to charity) which could be interpreted as the greed of Wall Street. The statue of Harambe (former resident of the Cincinnati Zoo) was alone and in a casual half-sitting position, appearing to stare defiantly at the bull and its banana hoard.
