dian fossey did whatever she liked to do but most of all she loved animals In Dian's childhood, her parents divorced. (She continued living with her mother and her stepfather.) Eventually, she lost contact with her father. Due to her stepfather's beliefs of children being disciplined well, she wasn't even allowed to eat dinner with her parents (She ate with the housekeeper.) until she was ten years of age. Dian had a great love for animals, but the only one she was allowed to keep was a lone goldfish, which wasn't even replaced when it died.
Dian Fossey's grave is located in Rwanda, within the Karisoke Research Center where she conducted her groundbreaking research on mountain gorillas. The site is situated in the Virunga Mountains, where she was buried in 1985 after being killed in her cabin. It has become a place of pilgrimage for those inspired by her dedication to gorilla conservation.
