Dame Jane Goodall Research Paper

Did you know there’s more than one word with ‘zoo’ in it? Zoo is typically thought of to be an exhibit of animals for public viewing, but it’s also a prefix in words like, ‘zoophobia’ and, ‘zoonomy’.

The work started out continuing research on wild chimpanzees, but has now expanded to getting people involved to keep the environment clean and safe for all living creatures and plants. There are 19 Goodall Institute offices around the world as of this writing. Jane was interviewed on her views to violent animal acts and this was her response, ‘“By and large," she has written, "students are taught that it is ethically acceptable to perpetrate, in the name of science, what, from the point of view of animals, would certainly qualify as torture."’ (“Biography.com”) Keeping the environment clean and safe is helpful for us, animals, and the earth, so these sanctuaries are very
