Jane Goodall
Hart-sips
She discovered that some chimpanzees alter pieces of grass or twigs and then poke them into termite mounds.
The termites would grab onto the blade of grass or twig with their mandibles and the chimpanzees would then just pull the grass out and eat the termites.
One of her big discoveries is Chimpanzees form lasting family relationships and support one another even if they are not related. In 1987 Jane observed adolescent Spindle ‘adopting’ three-year-old orphan Mel, even though the infant was not a close relative.
One of Jane's major contributions to the field of primatology was the discovery of tool making in chimpanzees.
One of her big discoveries is Chimpanzees engage in a primitive form of brutal “warfare.” In 1974, a ‘four-year war’ began at Gombe, the first record of long-term warfare in non-human primates. Members of the Kasakela group systematically killed members of the “Kahama” splinter group.

One of her big discoveries is Chimpanzees have surprising courtship patterns. Males take females into consortships in remote areas for days to months.
One of her big discoveries is Chimpanzees actively hunt and eat other animals. This evidence disproved previous theories that chimpanzees were primarily vegetarians and fruit eaters who only occasionally supplemented their diet with insects and small rodents.

She has received many awards including the French Legion of Honor, the Medal of Tanzania, the Kyoto Prize, and the Tyler Prize for Environmental Achievement.
In 1965, Jane was awarded her Ph.D in Ethology from Cambridge University.
Yet, not only did Goodall make lasting contributions to science and environmentalism, she led a fascinating life
B-Day/ childhood
