Unit 1 Women of achievement Pre-reading I Why do you think Jane Goodall went to Africa to study chimps rather than to a university? 2 Do you think her work is important? Why? Reading 月 PROTECTOR OF月FR| CAN WILDLIFE It is 5: 45 am and the sun is just rising over Gombe National Park in East Africa. Our group are all going to visit the chimps in the forest. Jane has studied these animals for many years and helped people understand how much they behave like humans, Watching lily of chimps wake up is our first activity of the day. This means going back to a place where we left the chimp family sleeping in a tree the night before. Everybody sits and waits while the animals in the group begin to wake up and move. Then we follow as the family begins to wander off into the forest. Most of the time, chimps either feed or clean each other as a way of showing love in their family. Jane warns us that everybody will be very tired and dirty by the afternoon and she is right. But the evening makes it all worthwhile. The mother chimp and her babies play in the tree and, after they come into her arms, we see them go to sleep together in their nest for the night. Nobody before has fully understood chimp behaviour. Jane spent many years observing an recording their daily activities. She did not study at a university but she was determined to work with animals in their own environment. when she arrived at Gombe in 1960. it was unusual for a woman to live in the forest. Only after her mother came to help her for the first few months was she allowed to begin her project. Her work changed the way people think about chimps. For example. one thing she discovered was that chimps hunt and eat meat Until then everyone had thought chimps ate only fruit and nuts. She actually observed chimps as a group hunting a monkey and then eating it. She also discovered how chimps communicate with each other and her study of their body language helped her work out their social system t For forty years Jane Goodall has been helping the rest of the world understand and respect the life of these animals. She has argued for them to be left in the wild and not used for entertainment or advertisements. She has set up special places where they can live safely. Her life is very busy but as she says: Once I stop. it all comes crowding in and I remember the chimps in laboratories. It's terrible. It affects me when I watch the wild chimps. I say to myself,"Arent they lucky?"And then think abou small chimps in cages though they have done nothing wrong. Once you have seen that you can never
