Jane Goodall is a British primatologist, ethologist, and anthropologist who is best known for her groundbreaking research on the behavior of chimpanzees. She spent several decades studying chimpanzees in Tanzania, observing their behavior, social structures, and communication. Goodall's work challenged the prevailing scientific view that only humans could use tools and have complex social relationships. She later became an advocate for animal welfare and conservation, and established the Jane Goodall Institute to support research, education, and conservation initiatives. She has received numerous awards and honors for her contributions to science and conservation, and is widely regarded as one of the world's leading primatologists.
