Caption: Jane Goodall Dies at 91. Jane Goodall, famed primatologist and conservationist, died of natural causes in California on October 1, 2025, aged 91. At 26, Goodall began research in East Africa that revolutionized understanding of primate behavior. She discovered that chimpanzees use tools, form complex social bonds, and express unique personalities. Unlike her contemporaries, Goodall gave names rather than numbers to chimps, highlighting their emotional depth. Her meeting with Dr. Louis Leakey in Kenya in 1957 launched her remarkable journey in primatology. Goodall established the Gombe Stream Research Center in present-day Tanzania, setting the stage for her most famous work. Beyond research, Goodall founded the Jane Goodall Institute in 1977 to support wildlife conservation. Recognized globally, she was named a Dame, and awarded the U.S. Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2025. Even in her 90s, Goodall traveled and spoke widely, inspiring action for conservation until the end of her life. Instructions: THIS VIDEO MUST NOT BE EDITED FOR LENGTH TO COMBINE WITH OTHER CONTENT
