    • Synopsis
    • Before Jane Goodall ventured into the world of chimpanzees, or Dian Fossey left to work with mountain gorillas, 23-year old biologist, Anne Innis Dagg, set off for South Africa to study giraffes in the wild. In THE WOMAN WHO LOVES GIRAFFES, Dagg re-traces the steps of her groundbreaking trip giving us an intimate look into the factors that destroyed her career and the forces that brought her back.
