I remember this story. That’s Dorothy. She was a matriarch chimp. She oversaw the development of that chimp community. Read about it here: blogs.ngm.com/blog_central/2009/10/the-story-behind-our-photo-of-grieving-chimps.html

I’m sure no one will believe me, so I don’t know why even I’m posting this, but: I fucked her.
It was almost exactly a year ago. I was visiting a friend who goes to law school in Cameroon. We went out to a Rescue Center (which is one of the few non-nerdy I do well). After aping around a bit, she told me her name and there was a pause, like I should be impressed, and she said, “you know, my BFF’s are Jane Goodall and Neytiri?”. And was I was like, “Yeah, I’m from Seattle.” and she laughed. So ended up going back to my friend’s apartment, drank some wine, then he took his girlfriend home, and well¦
Anyway, I didn’t realize who she was until I got home and tried to look-up her videos on-line.
I think I’ve still got some picture on my old cell phone. I’ll check when I get home.

Pft. These damn dirty apes aren’t grieving… there’s sad because they won’t let them eat the carcass. Chimps, man… they’re assholes.

If they had subtitles, they would read
“See this? You see this?!? This is what happens when you don’t meet your quota in the diamond mine!”
