La Historia de Birutė Galdikas, la Defensora de los Orangutanes

Birutė Galdikas was one of the most important primatologists of the twentieth century and a key figure in the defense of orangutans. In this documentary biography from Código Biografía, we explore her entire life: her childhood, her education, her arrival in Borneo, her scientific discoveries, her controversies, and the legacy she left in the conservation of one of the most endangered species on the planet. For decades, Birutė Galdikas studied orangutans in their natural habitat and transformed our understanding of their behavior, their reproduction, and their vulnerability to deforestation and illegal trafficking. Her name is often mentioned alongside those of Jane Goodall and Dian Fossey, but her story has its own weight, a different intensity, and a much more complex human dimension than is usually told. If you are interested in documentary biographies, the great figures of science, animal conservation, and in-depth true stories, this video is for you.
