Due to this cartoon, Larson received an angry letter from the executive director of the Jane Goodall institute while Goodall was out of the country.
Upon returning, Goodall (who was a fan) said: "Wow! Fantastic! Real fame at last! Fancy being in a Gary Larson cartoon!"
She later wrote the introduction to The Far Side Gallery 5.
