Gonna miss her heavily. Amazing that she was still doing speaking and environmental support events at 91.

  1. What an amazing person. I’ve know of her all my life and every once in a while will hear stuff about her. Her dedication to chimpanzee is beyond what I can fathom anyone can dedicate their lives to anything.

    I don’t actually feel sad for some reason. It just seems that she lived such a worthy life and that there is nothing she needs to do more of in a person’s lifetime. Not sure I make sense but that’s just my feeling.

  2. This woman changed my life. I must have borrowed The Chimps of Gombe a hundred times as a kid. As an autistic kid I had very little intuitive understanding of others – her analysis of primate behavior gave me the tools I needed to understand and analyze the behaviors of those around me. Now I support the behavioral health of others professionally. I owe her everything I am and the world is poorer without her in it.
