Hello. Today, I'd like to talk to you about my hero, Jane Goodall.
Jane is famous for her observations of wild chimpanzees in their natural habitat, As a child, she always dreamt of studying animals, and when she became an adult, she finally got the chance.
Goodall spent many years with chimpanzees in a Tanzanian national park. At first, the chimps mistrusted her and kept their distance, but eventually they saw her as harmless. Goodall did not follow traditional scientific research methods. She did not number the chimps, but rather give them names so she could see them as individuals. Goodall's work changed the way people thought about chimps. She was able to discover how they communicate, and gave us invaluable information on their social structure and culture. She discovered that they also ate meat, rather than just nuts and berries, and also that they were capable of making their own tools.
For more than 50 years, Jane Goodall has fought to protect animals, including setting up the Jane Goodall Institute in 1977. And in 1991, she set up the Roots &Shoots programme, which teaches young people around the world how to protect the environment.
Following her countless years of hard work, in 2002, Goodall became a UN Messenger of Peace. She serves as an inspiration to me. She inspires me through her love for the environment and her desire to educate young people. I hope you will find her an inspiration as well.
Thank you.
