Jane Goodall turned 80 years old on April 3, 2014. She is an extraordinary primatologist who has dedicated her life to helping chimps. She even lived with them in Africa. She has a gift for interacting with them and instead of just studying them she gave them names and bonded with them. Her research helped show how similar chimps are to humans. She's won many awards and several books and films are based on her life. Happy Birthday, Jane Goodall."It was because the chimps are so eye-catching, so like us and teach us so much that my work was recognized worldwide."
