During her expeditions she braved many dangers and she got to know an amazing group of wild chimpanzeesintelligent animals whose lives, in work and play and family relationships, bear a surprising resemblance to our own. Through her work at Gombe Stream National Park in Tanzania and her own Roots and Shoots program she has become a tireless advocate for animals and the planet.As for that stuffed toy, Jubilee still sits on Goodalls dresser in London.
