The famous primitive scientist Jane Judal was famous for her pioneering work with chimpanzees, but she devoted her life to helping all wild animals – a passion for her death this week during a tour of the United States.
Fans said that she had spent decades promoting humanitarian reasons and the need to protect the natural world, and tried to balance the oppressive facts of the climate crisis with hope in the future.
“Mobilization of a global movement to protect the planet,” said former President Joe Biden, who gave Jodal. Presidential Freedom Medal Before leaving his position.
Here are some things that must be known about the life and legacy of Godal:
Despite Godal’s constant passion for wild animal monitoring in Africa, she did not get a university degree when she arrived there in 1957, and she started as an assistant secretary at the Nairobi Natural History Museum.
The famous anthropologist and fossil science Louis Lake gave her the job and later invited her to search for excavations with him and his wife in Oldovai. After seeing the grain and its design, I asked Liki if she was interested in studying chimpanzees in what is now known as his teeth.
In 1997, Associated Press told the Associated Press that he chose it “because he wanted an open mind.”
It was not until 1966. In ethics – they become one of the few people who were accepted at Cambridge University as a PhD. A candidate without a university degree.
While studying for the first time chimpanzee in Tanzania in the early 1960s, Godal did not spend her days to monitor animals from afar and give them numbers like other scientists.
She was immersed in every aspect of their lives, feeding them and giving them names and forming what can only be described as personal relationships with them. This approach was criticized by some scientists who saw it as anxious lack of scientific separation.
Godal has documented chimpanzees in a wide range of activities that are widely believed to be exclusive to humans, including showing their violent aspect without mercy during what she described as a “war”.
The vision of a group that systematically hunting and killing members of a four -year -old group was killed. The war ended only after the death of every member of the younger group.
“It was a shock to find that they could show such a brutal behavior,” she said in 2003.
In another case, the dominant chimpanzee recruited the young chimpanch aside to get the fruit. When the second chimpanzee shouted, his older brother entered to save him. Then when these two chimpanzees started screaming, a female interfered with two trees.
Since Godal could crawl, she had magic with animals. When she bought her first book at the age of ten – “Tarzan of the Apes” – Edgar Rice Borruz – started to visit her vision for the future. She planned to travel to Africa and live with wild animals.
But her dreams did not involve becoming a world. In 2020, Associated Press told the Associated Press that it had planned to be a natural world and writing about animals. But that vision turned as I learned more.
“I always wanted to help animals throughout my life. Then, of course, I led to” if you want to save wild animals, you have to work with the locals, find ways for them to live without harming the environment, then worrying about children and the future that they could have if we continue to work as usual. “
Godal said that watching a annoying movie in 1986 about the experiences of laboratory animals led her to invite – an invitation that lasted until her death.
“I knew that I had to do something,” she said later. ″ It was the time for recovery. ″
The Jin -Guodal Institute said it was still traveling for nearly 300 days a year to give lectures for crowded fans and was on the midst of a tour of speaking in the United States when she died for natural reasons in California. On Wednesday, students and teachers were scheduled to start an effort to grow trees in the Hashim burning areas in the Los Angeles area.
When she could not travel during the Covid-19s, began to broadcast from her childhood home in England. I spoke with the guests, including the American Senator Corrie Baker, the author Margaret Atwood, and the marine biologist Ayana Elizabeth Johnson, on dozens of episodes of “Jin -Guodal Huwaix”.
Fans said that Godal inspired generations of young people, especially women and girls.
Jeffrey Fulkin, chief international employee of Humane World for Animals, recalled how Judal once spent two hours telling his young daughter about “her adventures with animals and challenges that she is a leader in biological research in this field when conservation was still an emerging profession.”
“Chimpanzee, Banglain, Elephants and more. Jin is interested in all animals with enthusiasm. She was able to use this passion to inspire others – in particular,” said Volkin.
The University of Saint Andrews, Catherine Hubitter, who is studying Shampanzi, said that her view of science turned when she was a young researcher and heard for the first time Judal talking.
Hobe said: “This was the first time … I heard that it is good to feel something.”
