Jane Goodall helps humans and animals live together
http://www.ted.com/talks/jane_goodall_at_tedglobal_07.html

Jane Goodall, dubbed by her biographer "the woman who redefined man," has changed our perceptions of primates, people, and the connection between the two. Over the past 45 years, Goodall herself has also evolved -- from steadfast scientist to passionate conservationist and humanitarian.

2. That is so neat. I love Jane Goodall.
When my kid was in 4th grade, they were listing "heroes" on the board. I visited and saw her name up there, found out my kid had given it to them to list.

I've always wanted to meet here, have found her inspiring since she became the first Ape Woman. How fun to have that personal connection.

3. You're welcome
I recently listened to the Audiobook "Hope for Animals and Their World: How Endangered Species Are Being Rescued from the Brink" by Jane Goodall, and it was quite hopeful and inspiring... in many cases, literally from the brink. There are a lot of people out there doing good things.

I have been pottering around various videos as I have been doing some home rearranging and upkeep, and came across that --- and thought it was worth sharing.

All that screeching and flinging of feces.
