Jane Goodall, chimpanzee researcher and conservationist, dead at 91
Jane Goodall, the British conservationist and researcher renowned for her work with chimpanzees, has died at age 91. The Jane Goodall Institute confirmed her death on Instagram Wednesday, saying she died of natural causes.
Goodall was on a speaking tour in California when she died, leaving the science world in deep mourning.
Her funeral service is being held at the Washington National Cathedral in northwest Washington. You can watch as it unfolds in the livestream at the top of our page.
Rev. Mariann Edgar Budde, the Episcopal bishop of Washington, will preside over the ceremony. Members of Goodall's family, as well as other speakers, are expected to offer tributes.
Goodall, the world-famous primatologist, activist and environmentalist who made ground-breaking discoveries about animal — and therefore human — life, died last month at 91.
Goodall spent decades living among the chimpanzees in what is now the Gombe National Park in Tanzania, and the rest of her life travelling the world to raise awareness about the effects of climate change.
