This is similar to Charlie's Angels if they were scientists. Louis, a scientist enlists the help of 3 brilliant women to study great primates. They go out and become part of the primate pack and bring back lots of data. The 3 women weave in and out together from time to time. The story is mostly told in 3 parts and each women gets a part.

Jane Goodall is recruited first to study chimps.
Dian Fossey is next to study Gorillas and if you have seen the 80s movie Gorillas in the Mist go see it now and then finish this review.
Birute Galdikas went to Indonesia to study the Orangutans.

I had never head of Birute Galdikas before. I thought this was a great introduction to these amazing women and they are strong female women from real life. The art was safe and fun. Louis said women are more patient and better to be accepted into a society. He also thought they were smarter. He was correct.
