Beloved Digit:
Dian Fossey was an American primatologist working in Rwanda whose extraordinary bond with a male mountain gorilla named Digit led to a life of protecting these gentle giants from poachers. Tragically, both Digit and Dian died as martyrs to the cause. This tee is our homage to them.
15% of profits will go to the Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund, formerly the Digit Fund.
The Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund works to destroy poacher traps, run anti-poaching patrols, advocate for stricter wildlife protections, and promote conservation education. Thanks to Fossey’s work along with many other organizations, mountain gorilla populations have flourished. In her writings, Fossey expressed a desire to be buried alongside her “beloved Digit” in the Volcanoes National Park in Rwanda, where her gravestone reads, “NO ONE LOVED GORILLAS MORE.”
