Dr. Jane Goodall’s exemplary work with chimpanzees has been praised all over the world. This is the heartwarming moment when she released the 15th chimpanzee into the wild on Tchindzoulou Island.
Chimpanzees have long been known to have human-like intelligence and are emotional creatures like human beings.
As she was releasing Wounda into the wild, she recalled the time when Wounda was almost dying, but through their efforts, the chimpanzee’s life was saved. It was one of the most extraordinary moments of Dr. Goodall’s life.
Social media went into meltdown when Wounda was seen hugging Dr. Goodall in the video. Although Jane had just met Wounda, their connection was there for all to see.
Love transcends all boundaries and physical characteristics. It is a God-given attribute in each of us to explore and share with one another.
Dr. Jane Goodall passed away on October 1, 2025, at the age of 91. Her legacy continues to live through her lifelong work to protect the wild and the millions of people she inspired to care for our planet.
