Dr.
Jane Goodall
Host Bette Vasquez talks with Dr. Jane Goodall, the world's foremost
authority on the chimpanzee. Goodall has helped educate the world,
not only to better understand chimpanzees but the relationship between
all creatures.
In October of 1960 scientist Jane Goodall made an
amazing discovery.
While deep in the jungles of 
Gombe, she witnesses a male chimpanzee using a grass stem as a
tool for finding food. It was an amazing scientific find because
up until that point, it had been thought that only human beings
could use and make tools. Despite Dr. Goodall's efforts to help
the chimps, logging has ravaged that very same jungle. Today only
about 40
chimps, which are confined to a few
protected square miles, live in that region.
