National Geographic - Amazing Chimps Photo

In this amazing photograph taken by Monica Szczupider, show the burial of a chimp named Dorothy.
After a hunter killed her mother, Dorothy was sold as a “mascot” to an amusement park in Cameroon. For the next 25 years she was tethered to the ground by a chain around her neck, taunted, teased, and taught to drink beer and smoke cigarettes for sport. In May 2000 Dorothy was rescued and relocated. As her health improved, her deep kindness surfaced. She mothered an orphaned chimp named Bouboule and became a close friend to many others, including Jacky, the group’s alpha male, and Nama, another amusement-park refugee. On September 23, 2008, Dorothy, who was in her late 40s, died of congestive heart failure. (The story in National Geographic magazine blog)
