Has Anybody Heard Of Dame Jane Goodall?

[piggynose]

She´s a primatologist and a fascinating woman, 86 years young.
I am not going to give you any links as i got slated last time. Just google her if you´re interested.

[Mamyalynne]

Yes indeed, a fascinating lady.

I thought everyone had heard of Jane Goodall piggy. Wonderful woman. Don't need to google her.

[Mamyalynne]

I'll take a guess that you are referring to her comments on Covid-19, if so, she said nothing that could be deemed controversial and most was pure common sense.

[pastafreak]

Yes...first read her books back in...the 70s, I think.
I'll go Google now I suppose.

[Mamyalynne]

I'll post the link Piggy and take the flak should there be any.

We'll never stop exploiting poor animals. Mankind the biggest pest on the planet. She talks a lot of sense.

[pastafreak]

I just watched that before seeing you post it, Mamya. No flak from me.

[piggynose]

mamyalynne, you rebel!

[Mamyalynne]

That's me ;-)

Wonderful lady. Agree with everything she says.
Thanks for the link, mamyalynne.
It was inevitable, looking back, that something as dreadful as corona would emerge from those appalling markets in China.

National Geographic did a film about her a couple of years ago. Well worth watching. It's called Jane and is available on YouTube, Amazon Prime, Netflix and other services.

Is that the one with chimps, Barry? Trying to work out if she is the one I'm remembering.

[barry1010]

Yes, you can watch the trailer

[pixie374]

Thanks Barry x I hadn't realised she was older now :-)

[barry1010]

She is the Dianne Fossey of chimps :) Love her, too

[daisypotter]

Gosh she's 86 now. I too still think of her as young. Lovely lady.

[pastafreak]

I've always had huge respect for her. She makes a lot of sense, and her opinions are conveyed in such a calm and measured manner.

[piggynose]

I confess i'd never heard of her until yesterday when i came across her on youtube.
What a good all round human being, and such a warm persona.
