Who was the ape researcher who was murdered?
Diane Fossey was discovered murdered in the bedroom of her cabin in Virunga Mountains, Rwanda on December 27, 1985. The last entry in her diary read:"When you realize the value of all life, you dwell less on what is past and concentrate more on the preservation of the future"
Fossey's skull had been split by a machete, a tool widely used by poachers, which she had confiscated from a poacher years earlier and hung as a decoration on the wall of her living room adjacent to her bedroom. Fossey was found dead beside her bed, with her handgun beside her and her own hair pulled out and in her hand. She was in the act of loading her weapon, but picked the wrong type of ammunition during the struggle. The cabin showed signs of a struggle as there was broken glass on the floor and tables along with other furniture overturned. All Fossey's valuables were still in the cabin - thousands of dollars in cash, travelers' checks, and photo equipment remained untouched. She was 2 metres (7 ft) away from a hole cut in the wall of the cabin on the day of her murder.
Fossey is buried at Karisoke,in a site that she herself had constructed for her dead gorilla friends. She was buried in the gorilla graveyard next to Digit, and near many gorillas killed by poachers. Memorial services were also held in New York, Washington, and California.

How many babies does a trapdoor spider have at one time?
"Females deposit 50 to 2000 eggs, depending on the species, in a silken egg sac and guard it for 6 to 7 weeks. During this time, the female will stay very close to the egg sac and become more aggressive. The female turns the egg sac often, which is called brooding. This keeps the eggs from deforming due to sitting too long. The young spiderlings remain in the nest for some time after hatching where they live off the remains of their yolk sac before dispersing." Excerpted from Wikipedia ; see relevant source link .

There area lot of breeders online that sell them. I would check out primatestore.com/forsale.asp that is a classifieds site where a lot of breeders post what they have as well as individuals that are selling monkeys. Please watch out for scams. Never buy a monkey out of the US as it is illegal and most likely a scam. If you can buy a monkey close to you so you can pick it up, as shipping gets expensive and it is always best to see the monkey before you buy it. Please consider buying two monkeys, I know it may seem like a lot but they really need the interaction with other monkeys like them. Not only will obtaining two monkeys be beneficial for them, but also for you because you could leave them alone with each other for a little bit, where as if it was a single monkey it would need attention pretty much 24/7. If you are getting a pet primates, please do your research on them. I fully agree on having them as pets but some states have outlawed them and or you need a permit to have them. Any level of government can outlaw them so not only check with your state, but your county, and city/town. Good luck with your primates.

A lot of monkeys are threatened or endangered, so keeping pet monkeys is actually illegal now unless you move to Bali, Thailand, etc. Also, monkeys may look fun, but they're not a baby for long and they get hard to handle and even if it seemed to love you like you love it, they have huge fang teeth and the bite could get you into hospital.
