Jane Goodwall Celebrating 90 Years.

In July 1960, at the age of 26, Jane Goodall traveled from England to what is now Tanzania and ventured into the little-known world of wild chimpanzees.

Equipped with little more than a notebook, binoculars, and her fascination with wildlife, Jane Goodall braved a realm of unknowns to give the world a remarkable window into humankind’s closest living relatives. Through nearly 60 years of groundbreaking work, Dr. Jane Goodall has not only shown us the urgent need to protect chimpanzees from extinction but also redefined species conservation to include the needs of local people and the environment. Today, she travels the world, speaking about the threats facing chimpanzees and environmental crises, urging us to take action on behalf of all living things and the planet we share.
