The Oregon Zoo mourns the death of Tracy Morgan's Otter Double Ganger

It is only May, and it was a pretty difficult year for animals with weak connections to pop culture. In January Perry, the miniature end, who served as a model for Shrek's best friend died at the age of 30. Now we have just learned that an animal that appeared briefly in an episode of 30 rock has also died. No, we don't talk about “Little Jenna”, Jenna Maroney's Pet Gibbon/Adopted Child.

In the seventh season “Aufdrindulax” Liz tells her writing staff that TGS Must develop a new idea that is guaranteed to be “viral”, your example is “this otter that looks like tracy”. We then see a short split screen with Tracy Jordan and an actual otter in real life.

Tracy's fury doppelganger was an otter named Tilly, who unfortunately had just died at the age of 16. Accordingly The Statesman JournalTilly was adopted after an animal attack “by Oregon Zoo as a puppy after she was injured and malnourished”. But the orphaned Otter continued “to thrive over the zoo” and even “take care of other river voters”.

The most important thing, however, was that she was once in a network TV show for about three seconds. While it is unclear how the 30 rock Authors learned Tilly, a few months before the episode broadcast, that a number of people on social media jokingly suggested that the image of the zoo's otter. Recorded by Portland photographer Carli DavidsonBored a remarkable resemblance to Morgan.

As far as we know, the similarities there ended. How did no zooepers say that she spoke to make other Otter pregnant.

It is obviously sad to find out about Tilly's death – although most of them either forgot everything about this Otter or didn't know that it even existed – but she actually lived a long life for an Otter. According to the Oregon Zoo, the “average life expectancy for Otters river in the accredited association of zoos and aquariums is 12.9 years in the accredited association of zoos and aquariums.”
