Fossey knew that the babies loved to be tickled. After trying several different methods to make the babies laugh by tickling them, Fossey tried a trick used on human babies since the dawn of time. Fossey tickled their bellies while saying "ouchy-gouchy-goo-zoooom." It was not a scientific method, but it worked.
