Descripción Hardcover. Condición: new. Hardcover. In September 2008 Dorothy, a female chimp in her late forties, died of congestive heart failure at Cameroons Sanaga-Yong Chimpanzee Rescue Center. A photo of Dorothys funeral, in which Dr. Sherri Speede was cradling Dorothys head while her family of chimpanzees looked on, went viral after being published in National Geographic. The image was subsequently covered in hundreds of media outlets on television, in newspapers, and on blogs, deeply touching people around the world while showing once and for all that animals do indeed have feelings.Dr. Sherri Speede is the founder/director of In Defense of Animals-Africa and Sanaga-Yong Chimpanzee Rescue Center. Now she gives us Kindred Beings, a touching and scientifically compelling memoir that follows the chimpanzees life from the time Sheri met her while Dorothy was tethered on a chain at Luna Park Hotel in 1999 until her death nine and a half years later at Sanaga-Yong Chimpanzee Rescue Center.In Kindred Beings, Dr. Speede describes her relationships with Dorothy and other members of her adopted chimpanzee family, and their relationships with one another. She demonstrates that chimpanzees, like humans, are capable of a broad spectrum of emotional behaviors. Dorothy was consistently kind, gentle, and forgiving. Along the way, Dr. Speede candidly reveals her own struggles as a stranger within a country and culture that were so different from what she had known.Books like Kindred Beings, which bring attention to the complex emotional lives of chimpanzees, can increase concern for their struggle to survive. But while this is a story about chimpanzees, it is also Dr. Speedes story. Major events in her personal life unfold in her story of Africa and run parallel to the development of Sanaga-Yong Center. In September 2008 Dorothy, a female chimp in her late forties, died of heart failure at Cameroon's Sanaga-Yong Chimpanzee Rescue Center. A photo of Dorothy's funeral went viral after being published in National Geographic. This memoir follows the chimpanzee's life from the time the author met her at Luna Park Hotel in 1999 until her death.
