Dian Fossey's Gorilla Legacy
Update: 2025-12-08
Description
Dian Fossey, a former occupational therapist, revolutionized our understanding of gorillas by studying them in Rwanda. She gained their trust through mimicking behaviors and learned they were not violent animals. Her work was popularized by David Attenboroughs Life on Earth series. Fosseys dedication to protecting gorillas from poachers led to controversial methods, and she was tragically murdered in 1985. The question of who killed her remains unresolved.
