Leaving school at 18, Goodall’s fascination with animals led her to Africa, where she began assisting Louis Leakey. In 1960, she established a research camp at Gombe, revolutionizing our understanding of primate behavior by documenting their use of tools and complex social structures. Earning a Ph.D. from Cambridge in 1965 without a prior degree, Goodall founded the Jane Goodall Institute in 1977 and initiated the Roots & Shoots program in 1991. She continues to advocate for conservation and environmental issues.Dr. Jane GoodallJane Goodall -Facebook Jane Goodall- Instagram Jane Goodall- Youtube Jane Goodall- TikTokThe Jane Goodall Institute - Website
