黑猩猩研究先驱珍·古道尔在洛杉矶逝世 享年91岁
2025年10月1日，美国加利福尼亚州洛杉矶县洛杉矶市，珍·古道尔研究所证实，该所创始人、灵长类动物学家珍·古道尔（Jane Goodall）当天在睡梦中安详离世，享年91岁。她当时正在美国进行演讲巡回，洛杉矶是其中一站。
古道尔1934年4月3日生于英国伦敦。1960年，26岁的她前往坦桑尼亚贡贝国家公园，创立了持续至今的野生黑猩猩长期研究。她在那一年观察到黑猩猩会制作并使用工具，这一发现震动科学界，被研究所称为重新定义人类的时刻。她此后还记录了黑猩猩紧密的母婴关系、食肉与狩猎、原始战争、利他与同情等行为，其成果影响了人类健康、进化与生态等多个领域。
1977年，古道尔创立珍·古道尔研究所，推动以社区为中心的保护工作，该机构如今在全球25个国家设有分支。1991年，她创办面向青少年的 Roots & Shoots 项目，现已遍及近75个国家。她自2002年起担任联合国和平使者，生前每年约有300天在世界各地演讲，2025年获美国总统自由勋章。
研究所表示，古道尔的愿景将由研究所在世界各地的分支延续，以社区参与的方式推进对黑猩猩与自然环境的保护，并继续培养年轻一代的保护领袖。

Jane Goodall, Pioneer of Chimpanzee Research, Dies in Los Angeles at 91
On October 1, 2025, in Los Angeles, Los Angeles County, California, the Jane Goodall Institute confirmed that its founder, primatologist Dr. Jane Goodall, died peacefully in her sleep that day at the age of 91. She was in Los Angeles as part of a speaking tour of the United States.
Goodall was born on April 3, 1934, in London, England. In 1960, at the age of 26, she went to Gombe National Park in Tanzania and established the longest-running study of wild chimpanzees, which continues to this day. That year she observed chimpanzees making and using tools, a discovery that rocked the scientific world and which the institute calls the moment that redefined humankind. Her later findings included strong mother-infant bonds, meat-eating and hunting, primitive warfare, altruism and compassion among chimpanzees, and her work influenced fields including human health, evolution and ecology.
In 1977 Goodall founded the Jane Goodall Institute to advance community-centered conservation, and the organization now has chapters in 25 countries. In 1991 she created Roots & Shoots, a youth program now active in nearly 75 countries. She served as a UN Messenger of Peace from 2002, traveled some 300 days a year speaking around the world, and received the U.S. Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2025.
The institute said Goodall's vision would live on through its chapters worldwide, which will continue community-based work to protect chimpanzees and the natural world and to prepare young people as future conservation leaders.
