Description
Saving Species on BBC Radio 4 explores biodiversity, conservation and natural history, both in the UK and across the globe. This week is the 50th anniversary of Jane Goodall's work in Gombe, Tanzan...ia. Jane Goodall is famous for her work on chimpanzees and it was 50 years ago when she started her research on a specific population in Africa. Television, more than radio, has made some individuals from her chimpanzee study group well known and in this edition of Saving Species, we have a report from Jeremy Bristow who has been out to Gombe to meet Jane Goodall and some of her study animals. Also in the programme - did the Purple Emperors fly? We're out and about in Wiltshire with Matthew Oates and bring you the latest news from the pupating Purple Emperor butterflies.
