As we celebrate Jane Goodall‘s 90th birthday, we pay tribute to her revolutionary work and her partnership with Wild Immersion.
Who is Jane Goodall?
Jane Goodall shines as a star in the field of primatology, enlightening our understanding of the intimate connections between humans and animals. Since her spectacular beginnings in 1960 in the lush forests of Gombe, Tanzania, this British pioneer has captivated the world with her fascinating observations. She discovered that chimpanzees use tools and exhibit complex emotions, just like us! Her unwavering love for wildlife and her relentless fight for conservation continue to ignite the flame of commitment among people of all ages around the globe.
