As a special focus for Math and Science Week, we read about a famous primatologist in The Watcher: Jane Goodall’s Life with the Chimps by Jeanette Winter. The story began with a young girl who was so fascinated with animals that she waited hours on end for a hen to lay an egg. Her later life took her to Gombe, Tanzania where she earned the trust of a group of chimpanzees and studied their daily habits closely. She saw them picking up branches and using them as tools to catch tasty termites. Before Jane Goodall’s research people thought only humans used tools, but now she had documented that animals also use them. Jane also saw the destruction of the chimp’s habitat and wanted animals in the wild to be protected. She travelled the world giving talks in cities and towns (coming to China several times) to speak up for animals, until her death at the age of 91 in 2025.
本周，为了配合“数学与科学周”，我们一起阅读了珍妮特·温特（Jeanette Winter）的作品——《观察者：珍·古道尔与黑猩猩的生活》（The Watcher: Jane Goodall’s Life with the Chimps）。这是一本讲述著名灵长类动物学家珍·古道尔故事的绘本。故事从一个对动物极度着迷的小女孩开始：为了亲眼观察母鸡下蛋，她曾连续数小时耐心地等待。成年后，她的足迹延伸到了坦桑尼亚的贡贝。在那里，她赢得了黑猩猩群的信任，并近距离观察它们的生活习性。她发现黑猩猩会捡起树枝作为工具，用来捕捉美味的白蚁。在珍·古道尔的研究之前，人们普遍认为只有人类才会使用工具，但她的记录证明了动物同样拥有这种智慧。珍也目睹了黑猩猩栖息地遭受破坏的惨状，并致力于保护野生动物。她曾奔波于世界各地的城市和乡村（也曾多次来到中国）为动物发声。这份使命感贯穿了她的一生，直到她于2025年以91岁的高龄与世长辞。
