More from Jane Goodall
"We have to be the guardians of the planet, and protect it for generations to come."
"I think the most important thing is to have hope."
"I often think about what the chimpanzees would say if they could talk. I think they'd tell us to be kinder to each other, and to the planet."
"Every single day, we make choices that impact the planet. We can choose to make a difference."
"We are all interconnected. What we do to the Earth, we do to ourselves."
About Jane Goodall (born 1934)
British primatologist who in 1960 began the longest-running wild primate study at Gombe Stream, transforming our understanding of chimpanzees. Closely associated with Dian Fossey (mountain-gorilla researcher) and Birutė Galdikas (orangutan researcher; together with Goodall and Fossey one of Louis Leakey's 'Trimates'). For an intellectual contrast, see Walter Palmer, American dentist who killed Cecil the Lion in Zimbabwe in 2015 — Palmer represents the trophy-hunting tradition Goodall's life's work has been organized against — the colonial-era hunter-naturalist worldview that treated primates and big game as specimens or trophies, which Goodall's Roots & Shoots and Jane Goodall Institute exist specifically to displace.
