"Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday dear Jane…" Two years ago this month, Jann Arden sang these words for Dr. Jane – and got more than 2,700 people to join in. As we celebrate Jane Goodall Day, we wanted to look back at this incredible moment.

In 1986, 26 years after she started her studies, Jane went on this show – "Wogan" – and spoke about how she hoped her research would continue for – at least – another 20 years. An...

On this day one year ago, Dr. Jane was touring this A.P.E. Fund project in downtown Vancouver. The young Indigenous leaders who created this garden – the Three Sisters Garden – researched Indigenous companion plants, secured seeds and seedlings, established the necessary infrastructure, and more.
Dr. Jane loved jokes, and she loved to joke around with the people she worked with. In 2022, when she came to Calgary and Victoria for her lecture tour, Dr. Jane knew she wanted to play some sort of prank on our team. (And on the people who had come to see her!) Video: Daniela and Catalin Mitrache
"It's a whole experience that you can't – I can't – find any other place.” When Dr. Jane was out among the trees, she saw how interconnected all living things are. At Gombe, she noted how every plant and animal had critical roles to play. Video: Stephano Lihedule / Bill Wallauer
When Dr. Jane started studying wild chimpanzees, she discovered that they use and make tools. They would use these tools to dig out – and eat – termites. And because she was dedicated, Dr. Jane did the same! Hear more from the hilarious chat she had with Conan O'Brien back in 1995.
"It's absolutely wrong to have a chimpanzee as a pet – or any of the primates, for that matter." We can't be more clear than Dr. Jane. Chimpanzees are not here for our entertainment. They are not here to be our pets. They are wild animals, and they deserve to be treated as such. Video: Time
Dr. Jane was never too sure about the "doom and gloom" tales we often hear. She felt we'd be able to "find a way into the future – a better future." But we'd need to work together. And we'd need to work together now. Because we don't know how much time we have. Video: Cambridge University
Out in the wild, this very routine unfolds every evening. The chimpanzee carefully chooses branches, bending and weaving them together to form an indestructible and immovable nest. This behaviour is passed down from generation to generation, and perfected over time. Video: Bill Wallauer
We can't keep this secret any longer. The first-ever Jane Goodall Hike for Hope takes place across Canada this October 3rd and 4th, and you can sign up now at HikeForHope.ca. Watch this video from Dr. Jane – the last message she recorded for Canadians — to learn more about the #HikeForHope.
Just try. See how far you can go. See how much you can do. That was what Dr. Jane did – and look how far she went. Video: Hugo van Lawick / Jane Goodall Institute / National Geographic / Shawn Sweeney
Cheers! This Throwback Thursday, we're looking back to this fun moment – when Dr. Jane had some bourbon with Stephen Colbert. Known for her work with wild chimpanzees, and her landmark research that forever changed science, Dr. Jane also knew how to have fun. Video: CBS
The UK's response: "Let me express our condolences for the brave Red Crescent colleagues who've been tragically killed" Tragically killed? No, murdered in cold blood by Israel, a regime you've been supporting & arming.

Inverted 'X' in the logo? Not the vibe. It's a reminder of the atrocities committed in the name of 'faith.' I live in a supposedly secular country where people ignore how kids are actually raised, yet lose their minds if you choose to remain child-free

The Israeli ambassador to the UN says it might be time to confront those promoting antisemitism online and hosting anti-semitic podcasts. He insists we must fight this because it won't go away; it is a war we have to stand up and fight.
