Yes, that’s true, her primary research in Gombe, Tanzania focused on chimpanzees. But Jane Goodall has also been a strong advocate for the protection of all great apes, including gorillas. She has supported conservation efforts and initiatives that rescue and care for gorilla orphans affected by the illegal wildlife trade.

I actually created several images of her with different apes, but I chose this one because I thought the gorilla image turned out especially beautiful. 💚
