As an adult I'm thankful to be inthe generation where we were able to not only test their DNA but break it down more to understand the genes and the closeness of out or relations and the distance that is minute between each species and us. How we have changed since understanding DNA more and realizing our close relations to other species and how far we are from some species.

Then going to another part of the world and helping humans survive their devastation in this same world different part. You are an incredible human being.

Dian made a lot of enemies in her crusade to save the gorillas. So who knows who killed her?

[@joywalker4918]

That's the point..

[@lauralarrabee7870]

Even if it was a smuggler, the smuggler would have had to have had working knowledge of Dian’s habits and daily living intel.

Yep I agree. Mind your own business maybe you’ll still be alive.

[@seasidekreations-australia]

so sad that such an amazing woman died in such a way. I remember watching Gorillas in the Mist and crying my eyes out when the gorillas were killed and especially when digit was killed, I was effected more when the gorillas were killed than when she was but thats due to my having more time for animals than I do for humans. Dian opened the eyes of many to the wonderful and intelligent world of gorillas and their plight, for that many will remember her for, may she and the many gorillas whose lives were so heinously taken RIP.

[@themelanatednomad6989]

Excuse me what? That’s incredibly messed up. I don’t know why animal lovers proudly admit that they care about animal lives than human ones as if that isn’t a sign of a psychopath.

Two things she did that set her up for disaster was that she was mean and often volatile with her workers and then openly made it known that she had information on gold smugglers. Surely she must not have understood that her actions could lead to repercussions.

[@chrishoo2]

It occurs to me that people in western societies have no idea that there are countries with no safety nets. Yes there would be people who knew what happened & they would also know to keep very quiet about it.

[@aflexonabitch]

She understood but her passion for the animals was greater than the fear. And some people just have this aura about them that makes them feel like “they run ish”. Ijs you see the hornets don't kick the nest

It's not necessarily just "comprehension" that he appears to struggle with - the English language itself appears to be an issue. He appears to mock someone for the very thing he struggles with. It's a real shame that people feel the need to do so, but he's entitled to take out his frustrations by typing a series of letters into a pseudo-English format!

more like it runs straight into the poachers who pay the officials there and other countries to smuggle things in and out (dead gorillas). Money truly is the root of all evil.
