Anthropologist Birute Galdikas on Rescuing Organutans
"The New York Times Magazine" called Galdikas the "third angel" of Louis Leakey, who also taught Jane Goodall and DIan Fossey. Galdikas has been studying orangutans in Indonesia since 1971, when virtually nothing was known about the animals in the wild. Since then, there have been articles about her, and her research in "National Geographic" and other magazines. She has just written a new book about her work, "Reflections of Eden: My Years with the Orangutans of Borneo."
