Ugh. The visit to Dr. Fossey's grave was heartwrenching. Thank you for sharing that intimate moment.

Ian Redmond is truly a great man . He wrote so many great books about primates/gorillas. And he never forgot that it was Dian Fossey who made it possible to work with the gorillas.

Thank you for this series. It was beautiful. I've read recently how some of these mountain gorillas have learned how to disarm the traps that poachers still try to set up. They're incredible creatures! 💖

I have heard of Digit. He gave his life to slow a group of poachers so the rest of his troop could flee. Dian's cabin seemed to be gone... I heard he was buried next to it. That was a terribly sad moment, my heart goes out to you and Mr. Redmond. You truly could not wish for a more beautiful and poignant place to be returned to the Earth.

This was so cool to watch..I knew Holly the biologist/narrator in college. I just happened to look her up and found this. I am so impressed. I knew she would do great things.

We need real answers. Money helps but how many people are like my wife and I who feel deeply for these wonders of nature but lack the funds to be able to do more than just care. We work for a living that leaves no time for fundraisers, protests, or boycotting. Any ideas on how to be more involved will be gratefully accepted. We have discussed this issue at length and agree that if our children are hungry, ill, no shelter, and no opportunities for an education takes precedence and getting angry or upset at people who have the same priorities is hypocritical

The best organizations in helping gorillas are the "Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund"(based USA) and "The Gorilla Organization"(based UK). They have a good reputation and are helping gorillas/humans in Central Africa. The Dian Fossey Fund also continues the long-term study of mountain gorillas that Dian Fosssey started.

I can kinda understand getting upset that the gorillas came close, they don’t want them getting use to human. However all species of apes are curious, it’s just unfortunate that they are killed and I’ll say it again. If the killing and deforestation doesn’t stop then Americans need to stop donating to them. Also we have our own problems with homeless, jobless, veteran’s who are homeless with mental health issues and drug problems. It’s so unfair that we don’t take care of our own first. I also can’t understand why they’re not self sustainable by themselves with chicken’s, fish, pigs, grains, crops I don’t understand I really don’t. They need to learn to raise and grow there food, for crying out loud I don’t want to hear about droughts because they have water and can get it for free. Who are the running that place? Our priorities are a little backwards here, they get so much money and not only from America where is it going? They need to become self sufficient and do for themselves.

All these problems in America that you mentioned are the fault of the Demonikkkrats. They welcome the problems at our wide open borders. Deadly drugs are coming through our borders. We have American citizens who are homeless, but this Democrat party is concerned about illegal aliens and making sure their needs are met . Those illegal aliens are future voters to keep the Demonikkkrats in power. We are losing our country. People need to wake up . We are funding a war that is not our problem. We now found out that American soldiers are fighting Russian soldiers. Biden needs to be impeached for that . He is a treasonous traitor . This administration is more concerned about the WOKE LBGTQ COMMUNITY. I say WOKE because the LBGTQ community is against what this administration is allowing to happen in our schools. Parental rights are being taken away from parents. Schools are giving children hormone blockers and taking kids to have their bodies altered. Donations come from individual people, not our government . They give money to morally bankrupt countries.

Rwanda is giving land back to the mountain gorillas. Rwanda is a very small country, so its not a easy step. If smart and good Americans want to help mountain gorillas, why not? You have enough money to fly back to the moon and you have 11 aircraft carriers. Saving the mountain gorillas is pocket money compared to it.
