Dian Fossey was a prominent American primatologist and conservationist, known for her extensive studies of gorillas in their natural habitat. Born in 1932, she developed a passion for wildlife at a young age, which eventually led her to Africa. In 1967, Fossey established the Karisoke Research Center in Rwanda, where she dedicated her life to observing and protecting the endangered mountain gorillas. Her groundbreaking research provided invaluable insights into gorilla behavior and social structures, and she became a fierce advocate for their conservation, often clashing with poachers and illegal hunters.
