"We have this one beautiful planet; that's our one home; that's what we have to save.” It was an honor to welcome ethologist, conservationist, and global icon Jane Goodall to the WashU campus.

“Most of what we’d been told about the interactions between these species is that they’d be competitive or avoid each other." A study led by anthropologist Crickette Sanz reports the first evidence of chimpanzees and gorillas building friendships. nyti.ms/3yMoJis

“None of us can do it alone, can we?” Dr. Jane Goodall & the Jane Goodall Institute made St. Louis — and Graham Chapel — a stop on her national tour to share her ‘tenacious authenticity’ and empower us to work together on behalf of our planet. bit.ly/3Sk4Aal

Our #conservation efforts over the past 25 years resulted in inclusion of the "Djéké Triangle" into the Nouabalé-Ndoki National Park, which now covers a total of 4334 km2 of the Northern #Congo forested area. A great victory in the fight for #biodiversity. Photos : ©S.Ramsay/WCS
