    What Sarah learned about Jane:

    I've learned from Jane Goodall that women should be running the planet! What an incredible woman. Men have had their go, now it's for us - like the hyenas do- to turn to the women to lead. But before that happens she showed me that a life lived without purpose is a life not lived at all. And one woman can achieve anything her heart desires- there are no limitations only the ones we put upon ourselves. And the purpose of human life is not to conquer and destroy but to love and cherish. It must be that we are here to love and preserve our fellow animals who are equal to us in emotion and thought and presence. They deserve to live out their lives in their natural habitat without fear of being killed or captured.

    Who is Jane Goodall:

    Dame Jane Morris Goodall is an English primatologist and anthropologist. In July 1960, at 26, Jane traveled from England to what is now Tanzania and ventured into the little-known world of wild chimpanzees. Here is a link to ane Goodall's Roots & Shoots is a youth service program to foster respect and compassion for all living things, Roots and Shoots
