Hello, today in the opera Queen Frey's show, in my show, yes, we have a conference because she cannot be here with a real hearing, yes, she has dedicated 55 years of her life to study how wild chimpanzees behave in the National Park of Gombe.
00:00:01
in Tanzania. She is also the founder of Jane Goodall's Institute and the Roots and Soots
00:00:31
Program. And now a big applause to Jane Goodall! So Jane, we know that all patience has its
00:00:40
beginning and we want to know yours. What can you tell us about the beginning of
00:00:58
you, your beginning? What can you tell us? Well, so as you said, every passion has a
00:01:08
beginning. So mine began when my father bought me this fluffy chimpanzee toy. I
00:01:15
started getting fond of that stuffed animal although my mother's friend said
00:01:22
that it was horrible that it would give me nightmares blah blah blah so that's
00:01:28
where my passion for animals and nature in general came it's a lovely girl and I
00:01:34
know you've been with chimpanzees almost all your life no so did you feel one of
00:01:47
of them did you feel of their family yeah you know i have spent more than half of my life
00:01:57
with those animals and after a while observing them and watching them grow i realized that part
00:02:07
of their behavior and how they act with their families it's so so so alike human that it was
00:02:13
like i uh once once i saw once that a baby was trying to go up in a tree and he was like
00:02:23
and the mother was like laughing at him because he couldn't go up so i think that's why that that's
00:02:39
the main reason why I felt they were from my family too because I saw them as humans sometimes.
00:02:48
You just told me that they were part of your family but I suppose it was not that easy. So
00:02:59
So, how did they react when you went there and started observing them one day and another, not only once?
00:03:11
So, as you said, it wasn't right. Far from it.
00:03:25
So, when I first arrived there, they were scared of us and they would run away when you got close.
00:03:29
But by the time I returned home, they were so used to humans that you could walk meters away from them and they wouldn't go away.
00:03:37
I mean, they would just behave normally like they would do if they were alone.
00:03:49
So, it's incredible that they got so used to us and now we can observe them without bothering their families.
00:03:59
It's amazing that we can stay very close to them.
00:04:14
And we have also heard that you fought against the tree falling in Gombo.
00:04:19
Am I wrong?
00:04:30
No, you are completely right.
00:04:32
Actually, after a while I realized that trees were being cut down
00:04:34
and that entire families of chimpanzees had to move to unknown parts of the forest
00:04:42
and it was dangerous because they didn't know where they were going.
00:04:51
So I went to the outside world, spoke to them, I convinced them that they were destroying nature, and it wasn't right.
00:04:56
And after that, the Forest of Gombe became a national park.
00:05:08
It's amazing how we feel like we are more than other animals but inside us, inside ourselves,
00:05:12
all the animals are the same.
00:05:24
The only thing we want and they want is to protect our family and it's very beautiful.
00:05:27
So now can you talk a bit about your cooperation with National Geographic because I think that
00:05:38
is a very interesting point.
00:05:47
So from my point of view I think working with National Geographic really helped me expand
00:05:50
my project and my objective which was raise awareness of people that by destroying habitats
00:05:56
They are also destroying animals, entire species, and they are going away.
00:06:06
Some of them don't exist anymore and it's just because we are destroying their habitats
00:06:15
and the nature where they live.
00:06:20
So I think without their help I wouldn't have gone as far as I went with my research and
00:06:23
I want to thank them for that because I really appreciate it.
00:06:29
Yes, thanks for all those people that make easier the work of people who want the better for us and for our planet, for our environment.
00:06:33
Unfortunately, this interview has to end here.
00:06:48
Thank you very much, James, for your time.
00:06:53
Thank you for inviting me.
00:06:56
And thank you all for watching us! See you next program!
