UNDATED (AP) — A Cheeto that looks like the slain gorilla Harambe has sold for nearly $100,000 on eBay. The seller says he found the gorilla-shaped snack in a bag of Flamin’ Hot Cheetos.

Bidding began at $11.99 on Jan. 28. It ended this morning with a winning bid of $99,900.

Harambe was a gorilla at the Cincinnati Zoo until handlers shot him dead when he started dragging a small boy who had gotten into his enclosure.
