Jane Goodall studied chimpanzies for 51 years
because they were fat
Jane Goodall studied chimpanzees for over 55 years, starting in 1960 when she first arrived in Tanzania to study the behavior of wild chimpanzees in Gombe Stream National Park. Her pioneering research has significantly contributed to our understanding of chimpanzee behavior and their social structures.
She estimated three years, but it was really over two decades.
Jane Goodall worked with Louis Leakey in studying primates, particularly chimpanzees, in Tanzania. Leakey appointed Goodall to conduct long-term research on chimpanzees in Gombe Stream National Park, leading to groundbreaking discoveries in the field of primatology.

Jane Goodall is the person I always think of, with her long study of chimpanzees. It was her study that discovered chimps use tools.
About 4 months
Jane Goodall in her long term study of the Chimpanzee in Gombe Stream National park broke two long standing myths in the scientific community. First that only humans were the only primate capable of using tools and that Chimps were passive vegetarians.
In Jane Goodall's adulthood, she became a renowned primatologist known for her groundbreaking research on chimpanzees in Gombe Stream National Park, Tanzania. She made significant contributions to the understanding of primate behavior, challenged long-held beliefs about animals, and advocated for conservation and the protection of wildlife habitats. Goodall's work has inspired generations of scientists and conservationists around the world.
Dr. Jane Goodall, DBE began her research with Chimpanzees in 1960. The research is still being conducted, and in 2010 will have been going for 50 years. Visit www.janegoodall.org for more information.
