Dr. Jane Goodall Got Her Start Studying Chimpanzees
Known for her tireless efforts to protect our furry friends, the chimpanzees, Jane spends a whopping 300 days a year traversing the globe, spreading her message of conservation and hope like vines in the densest of jungles.
From the concrete jungles of New York City to the lush greenery of her childhood home, Jane's jungle jaunts have captured the hearts of admirers worldwide. With her trusty chimpanzee companions by her side, she has braved uncharted territories and uncovered the secrets of the rainforest, all while inspiring others to join her in the fight to save our precious wildlife.
Her journey began at age 26 amidst the African jungle's rustling leaves and echoing calls. There, she embarked on a quest to study the mischievous antics of our closest relatives, the chimpanzees. With little more than her curiosity and determination, Jane ventured into the heart of Tanzania's Gombe National Park back in 1960, where she made history by observing chimpanzees.

Dr. Jane Goodall is Dedicated to God's Natural World
“We depend on the natural world for everything,” she says. “It’s like a beautiful tapestry, and all the threads are interconnected. As each species vanishes from this ecosystem, eventually, it will collapse."
She also goes on to say, "So we must give young people hope."
With every heartfelt interaction with creatures, she reveals the intricate harmony of creation. She inspires us to cherish and protect the wonders of our planet. Indeed, in 90-year-old Dr. Jane Goodall's unwavering dedication and profound insight, we see a reflection of God's love for all living beings and His divine plan for harmony and coexistence in our world.
