Listen "Jane Goodall"
Episode Synopsis
Today we’re remembering renowned primatologist Jane Goodall, known for her work researching the behavior of chimpanzees and protecting their habitats. She died last week at the age of 91. "Every time somebody discovers an animal doing something that we used to think was unique to us, there is this scientific uproar, because we [humans] have to keep our uniqueness. And of course the chimps have challenged this belief again and again and again," Goodall told Terry Gross in 1999. John Powers reviews the Netflix thriller film A House of Dynamite, directed by Kathryn Bigelow. Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy
