Jane Goodall - Khushboo Uttamchandani

Jane Goodall was a revolutionary English primatologist (a person who studies primates, which is a group of animals that includes human beings, apes, monkeys, and others). Her methods of studying animals in the wild, changed how chimpanzees (a kind of ape) as a species are understood, but also how studies of many different kinds of animals are carried out.

She created The Roots & Shoots program is about making positive change happen—for our communities, for animals and for the environment. With tens of thousands of young people in almost 100 countries, the Roots & Shoots network connects youth of all ages who share a desire to create a better world. Young people identify problems in their communities and take action. Through service projects, youth-led campaigns and an interactive website, Roots & Shoots members are making a difference across the globe.

    i like how you explain Roots & Shoots program. you provide information about it. however, when you talk about her you did not tell much information about her such as where did she study the chimpanzees and when?
