Now the community has decided to help apes.\nDr Stoinski's video in which she thanked WSB for their \"incredible support\", was posted on the subreddit and upvoted more than 159,000 times. \nShe told BBC News: \"They've truly made a difference for our world and shown what can be accomplished when people come together. When we save gorillas and we save forests, we save our world.\"\nIn a tweet, the charity said: \"In a typical weekend, we might get 20 new adoptions. This weekend, the numbers astonished us. \n\"It's safe to say that the investor community on Reddit is not traditionally who we think of as our supporter base. But they definitely surprised and overwhelmed us over the weekend.\"\n\nYou might also be interested in:\n\nWhy the GameStop story is far from over?\nReddit chief: I was late to spot GameStop mania \nThe deadly job of protecting DR Congo's gorillas\n\n\n\n Tara Stoinski \n \n  Tara Stoinski told the BBC the amount of attention the donations have brought to gorillas has been \"phenomenal\"\n \n\nDevin Owen has adopted two gorillas named Twibuke and Iyamarere. \nDevin told BBC News: \"I'm just doing my part as one of many to help a great organisation to help apes. Apes are strong together.\"\n\n Devin Owen \n \n  Twibuke and Iyamarere are the two gorillas adopted by Devin Owen, a member of the WallStreetBets community on Reddit\n \n\nWhy have some Redditors adopted gorillas? \nAccording to KnowYourMeme, WSB types referring to each other as \"apes\" is from the prequel to the Planet of the Apes movies, and Caesar's explanation that \"apes together strong\" is a motto which is often repeated in Reddit posts.\nHowever, there's a thread on WSB of some Redditors, complaining about the current terminology. \nOthers claim they call themselves the \"ape gang\" because they think of themselves as being like monkeys pressing buttons on a keyboard to buy stocks. Members also frequently use gorilla emojis in their posts. \nThere were around two million members of the community at the start of 2021, increasing to 10 million in March. It is believed by Redditors that the \"ape\" term took off when they got to three million members.\nAdopting gorillas started on Friday, when a member of the WSB community posted that they had sent a donation to the Dian Fossey Gorilla fund, which allowed them to adopt their own gorilla. \nThe post was upvoted over 112,000 times, with other members of the community following suit to adopt their own gorillas.\n\n Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund \n\nA brief history\nThis is not the first time members of the subreddit have donated to a cause. \nPreviously, people who had gained a lot of money off the back of GameStop had made donations to schools, particularly to buy crayons. \nAlso, another Redditor bought 100 chicken tenders (the running joke being it is a WSB Redditor's favourite food, and 'tendies' is used as a term for the reward/gain from the stock) for their local school with their gains. \nReddit has quite a history of this. The sub r/HydroHomies - celebrating (drinking) water - often has posts up about donations to water charities.","kind":null,"is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":false,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"0","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":1},"commentList":[{"id":324741384,"gmtCreate":1616033882948,"gmtModify":1703496656826,"author":{"id":"3572950570984972","authorId":"3572950570984972","name":"KatsudonXL","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b630077c75a0a575a81a9a769aa4f207","vip":1,"crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3572950570984972","authorIdStr":"3572950570984972"},"htmlText":"Planet of the apes","listText":"Planet of the apes","text":"Planet of the apes","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://laohu8.com/post/324741384","repostId":2120139106,"repostType":2,"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"langContent":"EN"}],"isCommentEnd":false,"newsSizeData":{"likeSize":2,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"favoriteSize":0,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false},"APP":{"userAgent":"Mozilla/5.0 AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko; compatible; ClaudeBot/1.0; +claudebot@anthropic.com)","isDev":false,"isTTM":false,"deviceId":"web-server-community-laohu8-v3","version":"4.29.2","shortVersion":"4.29.2","platform":"web","vendor":"web","appName":"laohu8","isIOS":false,"isAndroid":false,"isTiger":false,"isTHS":false,"isWeiXin":false,"isWeiXinMini":false,"isWeiBo":false,"isQQ":false,"isBaiduSwan":false,"isBaiduBox":false,"isDingTalk":false,"isToutiao":false,"isOnePlus":false,"isHuaWei":false,"isXiaomi":false,"isXiaomiWebView":false,"isOppo":false,"isVivo":false,"isSamsung":false,"isMobile":false},"href":"/m/news/2120139106"}
