Dr Alan Goodall
Добавлен 5 сен 2013
This features some of my research at Karisoke Research Centre in Rwanda, starting in 1970, as the first scientist to work with Dian Fossey. Then later, as Director of Karisoke, after the murder of Dian. I also studied the gorillas in Kahuzi-Biega National Park in DRC. I travelled extensively throughout Kivu province in 1979/80 doing a survey for WWF to census the location of all eastern gorilla populations. Again I visited Karisoke - to discuss conservation issues with Dian. During this period I climbed the Ruwenzori's - The Mountains of the Moon. Most of their glaciers have since disappeared.
I went back to Rwanda in July 1994 - just after the end of the terrible war and Genocide had ended. In 1999 I became the Rwandan Diplomatic Representative in the (then) new Scottish Parliament - with the remit to help Rwanda with it's reconstruction and rebuilding. We did a lot together - especially in Education.
I will upload more material soon!

As I later learned from my pygmy trackers in Kahuzi- Biega National Park in Zaire, the issue of so-called poaching was much more complicated than we first realised. These forest had once been as much their home as it was to the elephants, antelopes and gorillas. The creation of a National Park immediately dispossessed them from their land - and left them nowhere to go, no way to feed their fami...

Now that I am retired I live at the edge of a National Park in the French Alps. Four years ago I found a tiny, half starving, feral cat in my rear garden. I gave her food and a bed outside - and named her 'Shinda' . Needless to say she then came back each day for more - cats are not stupid! However, my suspicions regarding her weight gain were confirmed few months later. I prepared a comfortabl...

Jozi's Story

This is the sad story of a young female gorilla - Jozi - in one of our study groups who had her hand caught in a wire snare. This was set in the forest by poachers to catch antelopes, but, as can be seen, these snares are not selective in what they catch.

Great camera work 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Thank you! Wish I had had even an iPhone then though - instead of a huge SVHS camera, battery pack and tripod with a fluid head!! Not so mobile in the forest with gorillas - who were not so well habituated then!
I always wondered about gorilla’s teeth. Do they keep them mostly all their life? Do they do any type of dental care??
Please share more!❤

Is Dr. Alan Goodall related to Dr. Jane Goodall?
Il like this information about the gorilla very much,please keep doing this work ❤❤❤😂
I am glad you like this - thanks for your comment!
Sorry to be that guy but that can’t be 1988. In 1988 The Garden Party was broadcast from the site of the Glasgow Garden Festival. In subsequent years it moved to the Glasgow Botanic Garden, not Kelvingrove which is a couple of miles down the road.
It was June 1988 and you are correct it was in the Botanic Gardens and not Kelvingrove! Chris de Burgh was also singing that day under the dome in the large greenhouse!
Thank you for the incredible effort y’all made to create this fabulous documentary which will help in your effort to enhance the survival of these magnificent creatures for future generations
Glad you enjoyed it Ozzie!
I love listening to them crunch and chew, they make even the brown dead looking weeds sound so tasty lol... they are beautiful and so majestic...❤❤❤
Thank you
You're welcome - glad you enjoyed it!

16:19....someone got a little too excited 😂😂😅😅😅
lol gross they were screaming at each other so loud the one started pissing uncontrollably on the other gorillas.. lol their just obese ass monkeys
they live in a big SALAD BOWL and their favorite food is SALAD,
Greetings from John Goodall, Alan is my grandads brother xx
It's a fantastically good documentary Alan. Ziz did not live very old, but had many children after him. I hope you upload more of the mountain gorillas, preferably from the early era.
Thank you! I am now trying to edit some more from my huge data base of footage! I have been waiting for the latest technology - which at last allows me to upgrade the material I first shot - over thirty years ago! Now it is available to me - at my home office! I also want to show some of the 'unsung heroes' of gorilla conservation efforts - and tell their stories - ie the Rwandan staff who worked tirelessly with us every day - at the camp and others in the forests tracking our research gorillas. All to often it is just the 'Wazungu' Scientists (ie whites) who get all the credit. Not fair at all!
@@DrAlanGoodallisGorillaGoodall Have to thank you for working to get the documentaries out in the open, Alan. There are many forgotten heroes, those who patrol daily, the gorilla doctors, those who got tourism started, and you who have documented some of this.
I agree! After my own experiences working with Adrien Deschryver in Kahuzi-Biega National Park in Zaire (now DRC) I was the first to say (in my 1974 Doctoral Thesis) that tourism could help the Rwandan economy. Unfortunately, Dian Fossey was totally against this - and even derided the people who tried to start habituating gorillas for tourism in 1979. Much like Trump derides those who oppose his views! When I was Director of Karisoke (1987-1989) after her murder I was lucky to take out the first Vets to monitor the health of the gorillas. We had interesting debates about when we should - or should not - interfere with their natural behaviour - to 'save them' This was especially so in the case of Peanuts - as you see in my video. That team has now evolved into 'Gorilla Doctors' who do a great job!. I was thrilled to become Rwanda's Diplomat in the then new Scottish Parliament (1999) and to help in their reconstruction. In the decades since, tourism to see the gorillas has become the centre piece of Rwanda's remarkable recovery after the terrible war and genocide in 1994. In place of our tiny metal cabins there are now 5 star lodges at the edge of the forest - and 5 star hotels in the incredibly re-modelled capital Kigali. I never imagined this success! The vision and drive of President Kagame and his teams - in tourism and IT especially - have now made Rwanda a jewel in Africa.
@@DrAlanGoodallisGorillaGoodallI have heard of a documentry that shows leopards stalking a gorilla family and there was a fight that happened do u know anything of it?
@@DrAlanGoodallisGorillaGoodallI’m very much looking forward to you uploading more content! My most favorite gorilla documentaries ❤
Thatcher gave Rwanda a Land Rover and this Tory government gives Rwanda migrients.
She sure peed a lot.
Any relation to Dr. Jane Goodall?
Of course - she is on the chimp side of my family and I am on the gorilla side!
Wonderful ❤
The film of this documentary takes me back when a time was much slower and more appreciated
It's so beautiful to see them free. Thank you for all your hard work in keeping them alive. So many ranger's have lost their lives while doing this and I have the utmost respect for them and the work they do. I hope they don't vanish from our world because we need these beautiful, gentle giants in it. I ❤ them. Thanks again to all who love and protect them. ❤🙂
I agree - thanks to ALL the rangers - especially our early trackers at Karisoke (from 1970 on) who NEVER got the recognition they deserved! Sadly five were imprisoned for life - for alleged crimes which took place even before the terrible war and genocide - despite evidence re their innocence! Two have died in prison and the others are still there! On the DRC side in the Virunga National Park, it has been horrific - shades of my early days in 1972 when the then Director of the Parks, Jaques Verschueren' wrote his book 'Mourir pour les Elephants'. Today they die to save the gorillas.
@@DrAlanGoodallisGorillaGoodall Thank you for everything and I'm so sorry. Love sent to you and those beautiful soul's who are lost to this world for doing a beautiful thing. RIP 💔❤
Hope for the best baby🙏🏻🙏🏻
God bless Jozi, I know she's in Heaven with her Creator.
I am sorry Jozi was killed so horribly. It is a sin to harm animals like is to hurt humans, and we should protect them. God created us to help animals and keep watch over them.
Poor baby
Awesome documentary! Love! Thanks for sharing
Just absolutely majestic regal king kong

Thanks all off u for get get rid of those trap love Gorilla ♥️🙏🏻
Poachers don’t seem to care about life and probably have no concept of the ramifications of removing species from the chain. I think that taking poachers lives is inconsequential and leaving their bodies in the jungle for other poachers to maybe learn what could be in store for them.
Actually - as I learned - it is much more complicated than that! The 'poachers' were mainly from the ethnic group previously known as Batwa. Due to new laws in Rwanda all ethnic group names have been forbidden. However, this group lived in theese forests, and evolved harmoniously for thousands of years with other animals in this environment. In Rwanda, unlike across the border in DRC - gorillas were never eaten - just forest antelopes and other small animals. These were hunted exclusively for food - to feed their families as they had always done. However, when the National Park was created - with no discussion involving these indigenous peoples - they were evicted! No compensation for 'their forest', no jobs - and, no way to feed their families!! So, if it was you - with starving children to feed - what would you do? Unfortunately very little has been done to help them adapt to a new life outside THEIR forest! I advocated tourism - with, as I found in Kahuzi-Biega, some of the Batwa being used as guides and trackers for the tour groups. Dian Fossey was totally against tourism - she never understood or even tried to understand the REAL PROBLEMS of the Batwa! And so, in her IGNORANCE< RACISM AND PREJUDICE - she waged 'war' against them. However, unlike as portrayed in the movie 'Gorillas in the Mist' - she was NOT murdered by 'poachers' She was murdered at the behest of rich members of the previous government - because she stood in thier way of making lots of money! For example - see how much tourism brings into Rwanda today - many millions of $$$$$'s Very little, if any goes to help the people who once called these forests 'home' So, would you still kill them and leave their bodies in the forest?
@@DrAlanGoodallisGorillaGoodall - If my choice is between having gorillas or having people, I vote to preserve the gorillas, or lions, or tigers, or elephants.
@@silverbackV Hi again. Evolution by the process of Natural Selection has - in our geological time scale past - produced a 'balance' - ie the best possible compromise. Unfortunately we 'humans' have upset that balance. However, as I saw in Rwanda in 1994 - 'Genocide' is no answer! BUT - maybe the fast growing powers of Ai and especially AGI will make your choice for you - sooner rather than later according to some researchers! Myself. I prefer "Conservation Management" - for the total environment including plants, animals and man. Sadly, it seems I am seen as an 'idealist!' So, maybe AGI will decide after all!
A long way fae Paisley!!!
Интересно, сколько из них осталось в живых на сегодняшний день....
Надеюсь, они живы и здоровы!!!!!!!!!!
I absolutely love watching documentaries, such as this one filled with so much information that have both good and bad outcomes in it as it shows the true circle of life 🦍
Hi Chris - Thank you. I have tried in all of my videos and also publications - to tell it as it is! That is what a scientist does! However, some people do NOT like when I tell the truth! Especially re the 'Real Dian Fossey!' That was a sad story which should never have ended in such a tragic way - if only Dian had, as pointed out by Professor Robert Hinde - "Been able to work with others!" She fought against tourism - which was the real cause of her murder! I recommended tourism in my thesis in 1974 and my book The Wandering Gorillas in 1979 & now on iBooks) Tourism now brings in millions of dollars to Rwanda each year. That is why I was not murdered when I took over at Karisoke in 1987 - 1989!
Wow, amazing how the truth can be covered up sometimes. I know Dian F. conducted groundbreaking research with the mountain gorillas but I was left with somewhat negative feelings when I read that she didn't give her cameraman any credit in her book even though she used some of his suggestions in conducting her research. I heard that she didn't even mention him at all. I hope I'm not spreading incorrect information because I haven't read her book myself. Thank you for the terrific video! These animals are so fascinating!! I have watched this numerous times.
Dian Fossy she is my menthor.I love her.
ABSOLUTELY HEARTBREAKING ❤️🩹 I can Only Pray that Humans will STOP Killing these Beautiful animals. And their will be Laws Against setting any kind of Trap that injured or kill’s Animals!! CANT IMAGINE This Poor Gorilla suffering Like she did !! 😢 I just can’t understand how anyone could harm these animals.
I absolutely love the mountain gorilla species,I think that they are the absolute most interesting and fascinating of all the great apes! They just put me in such awe watching these amazing,dare I say "animals"... That word just doesn't suit these fascinating species or do them justice... To be able to travel to where they live and just sit and observe their every action,in my opinion it would be the greatest thing for one to ever get to experience in ones life! Just looking into their eyes and at their faces and watching them in deep thought or problem solving is just soooo fascinating to me,it's amazing that us as humans evolved from creatures like this! I just cannot fathom that fact.... It makes my mind go crazy....
Captain Von Beringe's first name was Robert rather than Oscar. His grandson Andrea had also come to the Virungas in 2002 to see the gorillas his ancestor had discovered exactly 100 years before.
Thank you. I find it hilarious, but sad, that westerners (ie Wazungus) still believe that another westerner 'Discovered' the gorillas! Especially by shooting two of them! I recall the old adage that 'Nothing is said to have been discovered until it is first seen by a westerner (preferably an Englishman!) So, long ago I wrote that these mountain gorillas were first DISCOVERED by two young Rwandan cattle herders - who were tending their family cows in the meadows of the Virunga Volcanoes - at least 400 years ago!!! Unfortunately their discovery to Science was never officially recognised!
This is the famous gorilla troop early years
Yes - these groups subsequently led to the famous ones led by 'King Titus' and another by Pablo, Cantsbee and Shinda
My fav animals
The trust the gorillas have for her to allow the young ones to play with her like that is unbelievable
So beautiful. Love it

There to stupid not to stick there hands in traps!! Over and over
Jozi was not being stupid - but you are! These traps are cleverly hidden so that ANY animals (usually antelopes) can ACCIDENTALLY step in them whilst walking along in dense vegetation. Maybe get an expert to set some and see if you can avoid getting your neck caught?
People want soooo bad for them to be human that they just lie about there behavior!! They wanted to see if she was dead ..they dont give a single shit..they eat there own turds!!! There not feeling sorry for her
