**Description:**  SCP-6170 is a sentient //Gorilla gorilla gorilla//[[footnote]] Western lowland gorilla. [[/footnote]] currently residing within the Cincinnati Zoo & Botanical Garden in Cincinnati, Ohio. SCP-6170 demonstrated stabilising effects on anomalous phenomena, not just in its general vicinity but throughout reality. Objects with anomalous traits brought close to SCP-6170 have these properties diminished, or in some cases, outright nullified. If the object was itself anomalous, it would either be forcibly changed into its closest non-anomalous analogue or outright removed from existence.

SCP-6170 was first discovered by the Foundation in 2015, during an annual check on animals held in captivity with the [[[scp-2472 |Binah Pattern Recognition System]]]. Due to the potential usefulness of its anti-anomalous capabilities, measures were taken to ensure that the entity would be cooperative with the Foundation in the future. As such, SCP-6170 was allowed both obscurity and to remain within a zoo.

**Update 28/06/2016:** On May 25th, 2016, a child visiting the zoo fell into SCP-6170's enclosure. Fearing that SCP-6170 would inadvertently kill the child, it was fatally shot by a zoo worker. Aside from the loss of a potentially high-value asset, no discernible consequences came from SCP-6170's death.

Reclassification to Neutralised pending.
