World renowned primatologist Jane Goodall has died of natural causes at the age of 91 during her tour of the US.

The legendary conservationist is widely known for her ground-breaking work with Chimpanzees, which she began when she travelled to the Gombe Stream National Park in Tanazania in 1960.

Seventeen years later she founded the Jane Goodall Institute to support research in the Gombe park.

The Jane Goodall Institute posted the tragic news on its Facebook page earlier this evening.

'The Jane Goodall Institute learned this morning, Wednesday 1 October 2025, that Dr Jane Goodall DBE, UN Messenger of Peace and Founder of the Jane Goodall Institute, has passed away from natural causes,' the post read.

'She was in California as part of her speaking tour in the United States.

Goodnight Goodall. You didn’t monkey around in your research.

Good post. She was a special lady. One thing that's often overlooked is that the famous paleontologist Louis Leaky was the person who advanced her career. She was a secretary and he thought that someone without preconceived notions would be better for this kind of field research.
He was right; her observations were a reflection of the things that stood out to her.
One other great characteristic she had was great endurance. She said if she had stayed in the field for only a couple of years she would have had an incorrect impression of the lives of the chimpanzees. Things she would have missed out on were things like warfare between groups, criminal behavior and cannibalism and other forms of extreme behavior.

She was a good lady… Someone who actually tried to do some good in this world.

91 turns around the sun is a good run. May she rest in peace

At the WEF she spoke of how much better it would be if the human race was reduced from 8.2 billion to 450 million, what it was 500 years ago.

Factoid for deniers of reality...

"Black culture, by any metric, is a complete & total failure as well as a violent, racist, terrorist cult unable/unwilling to assimilate into civilized society"

RIP Jane you will be missed by all of us from Free Republic.

Agreed. Most certainly.

But in all fairness - at least as her likeness is used here by yours truly - not necessarily 100% in the way she would prefer.

Re: “Fix Earth, Koko Cry”

This is also the answer generated by many Left Wing algorithms (AI) when queried about the Globull Climate Hoax.

The algorithm’s answer may be couched in significant psychobabble and gobbledygook, but the ultimate message is the same.

Originally, he organization complained about it, but that was before she knew about it. (Most chimps don’t get a subscription to a daily paper.) She did love it, and Gary Larson gave the rights to he, so they could sell merchandise for her organization.

People who don't know US history or customs don't understand them at all.

Yes, a “complete and total failure”.

Good ignorant grief.
