Jane Goodall, the world-renowned chimpanzee researcher and wildlife activist, has died at the age of 91. At the age of 26, she changed primatology with her research into chimpanzee behavior. She later became a world-famous icon for hope and conservation. But there are also controversies, such as the criticism of her working method and the accusation of plagiarism and even self-made quotes. Who was Jane Goodall? How did she grow from a shy secretary to a world-famous nature activist? And… why did our own Gemma Venhuizen almost get… argue with her?
