I hear rain coming down the drain.

I smell yummy food  waiting for me.

I feel the warm heat from my cosy heater.

I taste delicious desserts made by Mum.

Dian Fossey

Dian Fossey

Dian Fossey was an American primatologist and conservationist. She liked to look after gorillas so people don’t kill them. She protected gorillas for 18 years and  then people killed Dian Fossey because they didn't like her looking after the gorillas. Now the people can kill gorillas because they killed Dian Fossey.
