1 I Acknowledge Mine By Jane Goodall.

2 I Acknowledge Mine By Jane Goodall. Valerie Jane Morris Goodall
Born: April 3rd 1934 London - England  English primatologist, ethologist, anthropologist, and UN Messenger of Peace.  Considered to be the world's foremost expert on Chimpanzees, Goodall is best known for her 55-year study of social and family interactions of wild chimpanzees in Gombe Stream National Park, Tanzania. She is the founder of The Jane Goodall Institute and, she has worked extensively on conservation and animal welfare issues.

3 I Acknowledge Mine By Jane Goodall. Gombe National Park, Tanzania.

4 I Acknowledge Mine By Jane Goodall. Jane and David Greybeard.

5 I Acknowledge Mine By Jane Goodall.
Jane observed them to have unique and individual personalities, an unconventional idea at the time. She found that, "it isn't only human beings who have personality, who are capable of rational thought and emotions like joy and sorrow. “She also observed behaviours such as hugs, kisses, pats on the back, and even tickling, what we consider "human" actions. David Greybeard

6 I Acknowledge Mine By Jane Goodall.
Jane also discovered that chimps will systematically hunt and eat smaller primates. She watched a hunting group isolate a small colobus monkey in a tree, block all possible exits, then one chimpanzee climbed up the tree, captured and killed the monkey. Goodall observed dominant females deliberately killing the young of other females in the troop to maintain their dominance, sometimes going as far as cannibalism.

7 I Acknowledge Mine By Jane Goodall. "During the first ten years of the study I had believed that the Gombe chimpanzees were, for the most part, rather nicer than human beings… Then suddenly we found that chimpanzees could be brutal, that they, just like us, had a darker side to their nature."

8 I Acknowledge Mine By Jane Goodall.
Among those chimpanzees that Goodall named during her years in Gombe were: David Greybeard, a grey-chinned male who first warmed up to Goodall. Goliath, a friend of David Greybeard, originally the alpha male named for his bold nature. Mike, who through his cunning and improvisation displaced Goliath as the alpha male. Humphrey, a big, strong, bullysome male. Gigi, a large, sterile female who delighted in being the "aunt" of any young chimps or humans.

9 I Acknowledge Mine By Jane Goodall.
Mr. McGregor, a belligerent older male; Flo, a motherly, high-ranking female with a bulbous nose and ragged ears, and her children; Figan, Faben, Freud, Fifi, and Flint. Frodo, Fifi's second oldest child, an aggressive male who would frequently attack Jane, and ultimately forced her to leave the troop when he became alpha male.

10 I Acknowledge Mine By Jane Goodall.
Jane developed a close bond with the chimpanzees and became, to this day, the only human ever accepted into chimpanzee society. She was the lowest ranking member of a troop for a period of 22 months.

11 I Acknowledge Mine Goodall’s Reserch
By Jane Goodall. Goodall’s Reserch Challenged two long standing beliefs: 1.- Only humans could construct and use tools. 2.- Chimpanzees were vegetarians.

12 I Acknowledge Mine By Jane Goodall. While observing one chimpanzee feeding at a termite mound, she watched him repeatedly place stalks of grass into termite holes, then remove them from the hole covered with clinging termites, effectively “fishing” for termites. NOT VEGETARIANS…

13 I Acknowledge Mine By Jane Goodall. The chimps would also take twigs from trees and strip off the leaves to make the twig more effective, a form of object modification which is the rudimentary beginnings of toolmaking. MAN THE TOOL MAKER? "We must now redefine man, redefine tool, or accept chimpanzees as human!“ Louis Leakey

15 I Acknowledge Mine By Jane Goodall. A Persuasive Essay, also known as the argument essay, utilizes logic and reason to show that one idea is more legitimate than another idea. It attempts to persuade a reader to adopt a certain point of view or to take a particular action. The argument must always use sound reasoning and solid evidence by stating facts, giving logical reasons, using examples, and quoting experts.

21 I Acknowledge Mine How would you summarize the information?
By Jane Goodall. Reread lines 1-12 How would you summarize the information? The author decided to help chimpanzees in medical research labs after viewing a videotape that showed monkeys and chimpanzees suffering in a laboratory.

22 I Acknowledge Mine By Jane Goodall. Reread lines 37-44 Why might Goodall have chosen rethorical questions to gain the reader’s symphaty? Rethorical questions can sometimes have obvious answers. She does it in order to emphasize her point, focus attention on plight of chimpanzees.

23 I Acknowledge Mine By Jane Goodall. Reread lines 50-53 Why does comparing the chimpanzees to children create a sad tone? Readers can easily sympathize with orphaned refugee children and can transfer their emotional reaction to animals in a similar situation.

24 I Acknowledge Mine HOMEWORK: Read lines 53 – 116.
By Jane Goodall. HOMEWORK: Read lines 53 – 116. 1.- Why does the author focus on Jojo? 2.- How does she humanize him? 3.- How does this treatment affect your understanding of animal rights?

25 I Acknowledge Mine By Jane Goodall. Reread lines What details make this passage a powerful emotional appeal? This passage gets its powerful, emotional appeal from: The description of Jojo’s lost life in Africa, Jojo’s gently touching a finger to Jane’s wrist, the rattling of cages, the violent sway of bodies beating the bars, Jane’s tears and Jim’s words.

26 I Acknowledge Mine Restate the key point that the author makes.
By Jane Goodall. Reread lines Restate the key point that the author makes. Reasearchers have an obligation to yhe animals they use. They should learn about the animals and their natural bahaviors to understand how their experiments affect these animals. They should also observe the suffering they cause so they can weigh the benefits against that suffering, and finally they should stop treating lab animals more harshly than they do criminals, since they are supposedly helping humans and not being punished for crimes.

27 I Acknowledge Mine By Jane Goodall. Reread lines Summarize the author’s proposal for determining if the experiments on chimpanzees are justified. We should stop performing experiments on chimpanzees, creatures that are like humans in many ways, because we refrain from performing those experiments on humans for ethical reasons. The same standards of ethics should be applied to chimpanzees.

28 I Acknowledge Mine By Jane Goodall. Reread lines What words or sentences and images appeal to your emotions? “Deep shame” “deprived Jojo of almost everything” Images may include: Contrast between the natural world denied to Jojo and the harsh details of the laboratory.

29 I Acknowledge Mine By Jane Goodall. What evidence in this essay do you find most convincing and why? People are able to communicate with chimpanzees through “shared primate signals”. This shows they are intelligent, complex animals that deserve compassion. Humans have cruelly deprived them of their natural habitat and association with other chimpanzees.
