Dian Fossey Quotes

A collection of quotes by Dian Fossey.

Dian Fossey was an American primatologist and conservationist best known for her dedicated work with mountain gorillas in Rwanda. Born in 1932, she studied gorillas in their natural habitat for almost two decades. Fossey's groundbreaking research shed light on their behavior and social structures while advocating for their protection against poaching and habitat destruction. Her book "Gorillas in the Mist" became widely acclaimed, but tragically, Fossey was murdered in 1985, likely due to her vigorous efforts to protect the gorillas. Her remarkable contributions continue to inspire conservationists and have made a lasting impact on the study and conservation of primates.
