Jane Goodall, the renowned conservationist and pioneer of groundbreaking chimpanzee field research, has died of natural causes at the age of 91.

Jane lived an utterly remarkable life, and her discoveries revolutionised science.

She was only 26 years old when she first visited Tanzania to begin her research on chimpanzees in the wild

Before Jane went to Africa we knew very little about chimpanzees, despite the fact that they're our closest cousins.

It's only because of Jane’s research and observations that we now know they sometimes eat meat, they make tools, they laugh, they are curious about the world around them, they love, they mourn, and sometimes, they are capable of spectacular violence.
