Jane Goodall 6

Persuade us to consider your figure as the “greatest” human being who ever lived.  Give is 3 reasons with evidence.
Jane Goodall is one of the greatest humans who ever live on this planet. She has all the characteristics required to be considered as a great and wonderful person.She is loving, kind, loyal, honest, and very smart. She didn't just invent something, but she did much more. She cared for chimps, and offered them love just because she wanted to to and felt like they deserved it. No one forced her to do it, and she wasn't doing it for money which really matters. Apart from this she showed how smart she is to the world when she made huge discoveries about chimps which changed the perspective of chimps for people all around the world, as well as scientists. Some of her discoveries weren't discovered by any scientist before her. Jane Goodall spent so many years of her life devoted to making those discoveries and providing love and care for them. To add more to her greatness, she wasn't don't after her discoveries, she continued changing the world. Now she goes around the planet to many countries teaching people all around the world about the chimps, and how saving their environment is vital fro their surviving. She also wrote many books for all ages so that not only adults know about her journey. Lastly she created a Jane Goodall institute where young people who care about he environment an saving chimps get to do what they love, which is exactly that. That is why Jane Goodall should be one of the greatest human alive, for all her accomplishments and care. 


Title: The women who redefined man
Author: Dale Peterson
Pages: 232

“When Louis Leakey first heard about Jane Goodall’s discovery that chimps fashion and use tools, he sent her a telegram: Now we must redefine tool, redefine man, or accept chimpanzees as human.” However when Jane made her first appearance at a conference, she was very shocked by the reaction she got from a chairman to not be taken in by her glamor. Apparently, she was too young, too blond, too pretty to be a serious scientist, and she still had no formal scientific training. However she no one could tell her what to do, not even Louis Leaky because no one before her made a study about chimps which lasted that long. Dale Peterson shows how amazing Jane Goodall is and how it was impossible to do what she did until she came along. He doesn’t only talk about her discoveries, but how she changed the style of studying animal behavior.

  1. Really interesting post, and I agree, it's awesome that she did it all because SHE wanted to, and not for money, but just because SHE wanted to do something, no one else told her to. I like that you have a quote, a picture and answered the blog question really well! :)

  2. The presentations are coming so soon, and seriously can't wait to see you and everyone else dress up into their figures and present them. You explained very well that Jane Goodall is a very important person, especially to the chimps that she spent so much time with. Great job Miona! :)
