		As David is still a juvenile he should have been very close to his mother but Davida was no where to be seen, so clearly, something was amiss.
		David, who had been attacked by humans and witnessed his own mother being slaughtered by them, had it in him to trust one again.
		One of the first times I took David to the small forest he built an imperial sized nest in the trees and just rested in it for hours, a skill not commonly seen in the young ex-captive orangutans that normally come in.

		Dr. Meave Leakey is the standard-bearer of a family of paleoanthropologists who have dominated their field since the beginning of the 20th Century.
		Leakey’s field and lab work have established her as one of the most visible and distinguished scientists in a highly competitive and male-dominated profession.
		Dr. Leakey now co-directs the fieldwork in Lake Turkana with her daughter, Dr. Louise Leakey, focusing on the origins of our own genus Homo and the emergence of Homo erectus, the first human ancestor to move out of Africa.

		Though she let her husband, Louis Leakey, take most of the limelight, she was responsible for some of the most important discoveries in the study of human evolution.
		David Gergen engages noted Harvard biologist Stephen Jay Gould in a discussion of his new book Full House.
		Leakey--Mary Leakey this is--decided to dig, and she took the painstaking effort of digging sometimes some fairly large holes in the ground and pulling things out and recording every single detail about where they came from and what they were.

		While the KBS controversy was brewing in the mid-1970s, Mary Leakey devoted herself to exploring the Laetoli region.
		Mary Leakey describes the Laetoli footprints as "perhaps the most remarkable finds I have made in my whole career." Because the footprints were so humanlike, she felt they could only have been left by one of our direct ancestors.
		At Laetoli, Mary Leakey and her co-workers were bringing the season of investigations to a close.

		Major-General David Leakey, the British commander who will be in charge of the 7,000-strong European Force (Eufor), told The Times that organised crime was now the main stumbling block towards creating a proper democracy in the former Yugoslav republic.
		With the takeover by the EU of all peacekeeping functions in Bosnia this Thursday, General Leakey said that there would be a more co-ordinated attempt to rid the country of endemic corruption and tribal divisions, as well as to maintain the peace that has been guaranteed by Nato since 1995.
		General Leakey said that co-operation from the authorities in Bosnia was going to be vital if the last 20 indicted war criminals were to be captured, the most important of whom are Radovan Karadzic, the former Bosnian Serb leader, and Ratko Mladic, the former head of the Bosnian Serb army.

		Louis Leakey was born in Kabete, in colonial Kenya, the son of Harry and Mary Leakey, who ran an Anglican mission there.

		Leakey, says David Pilbeam, professor of anthropology at Harvard, "had an energizing effect on the field and on the people doing the research."

		The statement further said that the meeting was also attended by representatives of the international organizations which dealt with law implementation, or rather the EUMP [EU Police Mission], KAFAO [Customs and Fiscal Assistance Office funded by the EU] and the OHR [Office of High Representative].
		Leakey expressed his hope that he would not have to chair these meetings in the future, but rather that the Bosnia-Hercegovina authorities would take the lead in the fight against organized crime.

		No one even dreamt that the return of Richard Leakey would be politically feasible, but few doubted that he was probably the one person best equipped to salvage the demoralized and totally bankrupt Service, once again riddled with in-house corruption.
		Mindful of the ravages of uncontrolled fire within the fragile environment of marginal land, David Sheldrick had designed Tsavo's roads in such a way as to divide the Park into blocks bounded on four sides by a road from which backburning could be undertaken at night when the dry season winds subside.
		With David's absence, this machine was spirited away elsewhere until it eventually broke down in Nairobi National Park and lay abandoned for years, there being insufficient funds for its repair.

		She inserted one of the abandoned grasses into a hole in the mound and found that the termites bit onto it with their jaws.
		Soon after this discovery, Jane observed David and other chimps actually picking leafy twigs then stripping the leaves so that the twig was a suitable tool.
		Eventually it was discovered that the Gombe chimpanzees use objects — stems, twigs, branches, leaves, and rocks — in nine different ways to accomplish tasks associated with feeding, drinking, cleaning themselves, investigating out-of-reach objects, and as weapons — flailing branches and throwing rocks as missiles.

		Some ICTY observers are perplexed however as to why the respected international News Agencies avoid the actual facts regarding Gotovina's whereabouts, yet concentrate on pushing the unsubstantiated ICTY prosecution's office claim that he is located in Croatia or Western Hercegovina.
		General Leakey initially states: "(Gotovina) is known both to spend time in Croatia and Bosnia and Herzegovina as well".
		Leakey's 'generalised inconclusive comments' follow a familiar pattern regarding a number of other similar published media reports which claim Gotovina is in the Balkans.
