She loved this Far Side comic so much she licensed it from Gary Larson for her Institute to sell for fundraising.

This Far Side panel came out when my college GF and I were taking physical anthropology classes. We laughed ourselves silly.
Not at all surprised that Jane Goodall had a great sense of humor. Something sadly lacking in many circles today.
