Khalil Jerdak- Jane Goodall

No other primatologist or ethnologist has made the cover of National Geographic more than her.  She’s called Jane Goodall.  Jane Goodall is more than just the "chimpanzee lady". Her work gives new insight to our own humanness.


Jane Goodall created the Roots & Shoots program. Today Jane’s work revolves around mobilizing action on behalf of chimpanzees, which are endangered, and all wildlife species. The Jane Goodall Institute works to protect the famous chimpanzees of Gombe National Park in Tanzania, but recognizes this can’t be accomplished without a holistic approach that addresses the real needs of local people.
