It is with great sadness that we learn about Jane Goodall passing away. Pioneering, inspiring, a true animal lover and feminist, her dedication to chimpanzee conservation paved the way for generations of primatologists. 😥🙏🦧

Winter is mating season in Barbary macaques, females can develop very large sexual swellings and get lots of attention from males, as here in Apes Den group #Gibraltar #barbarymacaques
