Abstract
Jane Goodall offered us insight into the world of an animal that we share 99% of our DNA with: the Chimpanzee. Jane Goodall was born in London, England in the mid 20th century. After graduating from Cambridge University with a PhD in Ethology in 1965, she started her diligent expedition to help us understand more about Chimpanzees in the wild.
