17? I am thinking. I am not sure but I remember hearing that from somewhere.
She studied gorillas and got a lot of research.
Jane Goodall was famous for conducting breakthrough research on chimpanzees in Gombe. She lived with the chimps for 10 years in the wild and even gave them names instead of just numbering them like other researchers. She discovered that they make tools, have tribes, hug and kiss, and have different facial expressions.
Jane Goodall started working with monkeys/primates when making an appointment to discuss animals with Louis Leakey, who decided to make her his secretary. Leakey had wanted to research primate behaviour, and so sent Jane to start observing chimpanzee behaviour.
