Dian Fossey's Birthday Marked By Google Doodle


American zoologist Dian Fossey would have been 82 today and Google is honoring her with a doodle. Dian Fossey (1932-1985) was an American zoologist who undertook an extensive study of gorilla groups over a period of 18 years. She studied them daily in the mountain forests of Rwanda.

Fossey was discovered murdered in the bedroom of her cabin in Virunga Mountains, Rwanda, in late December 1985. The case remains open.
