5. EARLY LIFE
Valerie Jane
Morris-Goodall was
born in 1934 in
London.
As a child, she was
given a lifelike
chimpanzee
stuffed animal
named Jubilee by
her father; her
fondness for the
toy started her
early love of
animals. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tS8aclbqeo0

6. GOODALL AND GOD
Goodall has been married twice.
When asked if she believed in God,
Goodall said in September 2010:
"I don't have any idea of who or what
God is. But I do believe in some great
spiritual power. I feel it particularly
when I'm out in nature. It's just
something that's bigger and stronger
than what I am or what anybody is. I
feel it. And it's enough for me."

7. GOODALL INSTITUTE
In 1977, Goodall established the Jane Goodall Institute (JGI), which
supports the Gombe research, and she is a global leader in the effort to
protect chimpanzees and their habitats.
The organisation now has over 10,000 groups in over 100 countries.

8. ADVOCACY
Today, Goodall devotes virtually all of her time to advocacy on behalf of
chimpanzees and the environment, travelling nearly 300 days a year.
Goodall is also a board member for the world's largest chimpanzee
sanctuary outside of Africa, Save the Chimps in Fort Pierce, Florida.

9. HONOURS
Goodall has received many honours for her environmental and
humanitarian work. She was named a Dame Commander of the Order of
the British Empire in a ceremony held in Buckingham Palace in 2004.
Other honours include the Tyler Prize for Environmental Achievement, the
French Legion of Honour, Medal of Tanzania, Japan's prestigious Kyoto
Prize, the Benjamin Franklin Medal in Life Science, the Gandhi-King Award
for Nonviolence and the Spanish Prince of Asturias Awards.
She has received many tributes, honours, and awards from local
governments, schools, institutions, and charities around the world.
Goodall is honoured by The Walt Disney Company with a plaque on the Tree
of Life at Walt Disney World's Animal Kingdom theme park, alongside a
carving of her beloved David Greybeard, the original chimpanzee which
approached Goodall during her first year at Gombe.
