Jin -Godal, which changed forever how we see animals, die in 91

Anyone who suggests providing a major category about changing the world for the better, without becoming negative, satirical, angry or narrow in this process, can design their advice on the pioneering and work of animal behavior Jin -Guodal.

Goodll’s life journey extends from the wonder of unnotcted creatures to some extent-although it will never call it-in the backyard in English as a wide-eyed girl in the thirties of the last century to challenge the definition of what it means to be a human through it through it Search for chimpanzees in Tanzania. From there, I went to become an universal icon and The United Nations Peace Messenger.

Until her death at the age of 91GOODALL kept magic, openness, optimism, and widespread eyes who are more typical for children. I know this because I was lucky to spend time with her and share visions of My scientific career. For the audience, she was a world fame and symbol. For me, Jin – my guide and an inspiring friend.

Despite the tremendous changes that Goodall brought about in the world of science, Raise an animal behavior studyShe was always cheerful, encouraging and inspiring. I think about it as a gentle delay. One of her greatest talents was her ability to make everyone, in any era, they feel that they have the ability to change the world.

Discover the use of the tool in animals

In its pioneering studies in the lush rainforest in the Gombe Stream Game Reserve in Tanzania, Now a national parkGoodll noted that the most successful chimpanzees were cute, careful and family. Males who tried to judge by confirming their dominance through violence, tyranny and threats Not.

Me too PrimaryGOMBE’s leading GOMELE’s leading notes were part of my initial studies. The famous chimpanzee recorded long pieces of grass Inserting them into the nests of termites To “hunting” to eat insects, something no one has noticed before.

This was the first time that an animal was used to use a tool, which is a discovery of how scientists distinguish between humanity and the rest of the animal kingdom.

A famous anthropologist Louis Lake I chose Goodall to do this work specifically because she was not officially trained. When she appeared in Liki’s office in Tanzania in 1957, at the age of 23, Leei was initially rented as his minister, but he quickly discovered her potential and I encouraged her to study chimpanzees. Lecky wanted a person with a completely open mind, which is believed to be mostly scientists during their official training.

Because chimpanzees are the closest human relatives, Liki expressed his understanding of animals Provide an insight into the first humans. In a male field mostly, it was also believed that a woman would be more patience and heads than a male observer. It was not a mistake.

Six months later, when Goodall wrote her notes about chimpanzees using tools, Lecky wrote, “Now we must redefine the tool, or redefine a man, or Acceptance of chimpanzees as a human being“

Godal talked about animals as emotions and cultures, and in the case of chimpanzees, societies that were almost tribal were. It was also called the chimpanzee that I noticed, an unhealthy practice at that time, Get ridicule of scholars Those who traditionally numbered their search topics.

She became one of her most prominent observations known as the name The chimpanzee war Jumby. It was a four -year struggle in which eight adult males from a society killing all the six males from another society, who takes over their lands, only to lose it in front of another greater society. With more males.

Confidence on her way

Goodall was convincing, strong and designed, and she often advised me not to submit to people’s criticism. Its way did not include the leading discoveries in the movement of people or competitors aside.

Instead, her journey to Africa was driven by her wonder, love for animals and a strong imagination. As a small girl, he was moved by the 1912 Edgar Rice Buroz story.Tarzan monkeys“And I loved it Tarzan married the error gene.

When I was 23 years old The former fan of the American Football AssociationWith no scientific background at the time, and I looked at Goodall’s work, I imagined that, too, I could be like it. In a large part because of it, she became a preliminary pathologist, He participated in discovering a new type of Limour in Madagascar She lived an amazing life and profession, in science and on television National Geographical Explorer.
When it’s time to write My own storyI asked Goodall to contribute to the foreground. I wrote:

“The mayor of Media reminds me a little myself. Like me, I liked to be with animals when she was a child. And I followed her dream until she became a reality.”

Stories and teacher

Godal was an amazing stories narrator and saw it as the most successful way to help people understand the true nature of animals. With convincing pictures, they shared unusual stories about animal intelligence, from monkeys and dolphins to mice and birds, and of course octopus. It has inspired me to become a reporter of the National Geographic wildlife so that I can share the stories and ordeals of endangered animals around the world.

She inspired the quality of global leaders, celebrities, scientists and memorization scholars. I also touched the lives of millions of children.

through Jin -Guodal InstituteThat is working to involve people all over the world in memorization, launched Roots and budsA global youth program that works in more than 60 countries. The program teaches children about the links between people, animals, environment, and ways of that Locally engaging to help the three.

Along with the warmth of Godal, friendship, and wonderful stories, I cherish this comment, including: “The greatest danger to our future is indifference.

It is a radical idea of ​​a unique world.
