| 1 | I think these films, including 'Monkey Kingdom', have been valuable in raising awareness. Some people say the commentaries are a little much - the way the narrator puts words in the animals' mouths. To me, it's a perfectly acceptable twist that's really to attract children. We must keep the children involved, and very often their mothers and fathers too. |
| 2 | On 3lst January 1961, during my first year studying the chimpanzees of Gombe in Tanzania, a young chimpanzee named Ham hurtled into space and back in a Mercury capsule, paving the way for US astronauts to make similar journeys. Today, 48 years later, I would like to thank the astronauts, Robert Crippen (Robert L. Crippen) and Scott Carpenter, for honoring these chimpanzees and recognizing the contribution made by Gromek, Dana and Gogi, as well as those who never found sanctuary. [at the Save the Chimps sanctuary in Florida on April 30, 2009] |
| 3 | I fell in love with Tarzan and I was very jealous of that wretched, wimpy Jane of his. |

| 3 | Goodall was at the Save the Chimps sanctuary in Florida on April 30, 2009, when astronauts Scott Carpenter and Robert L. Crippen visited to pay tribute to the chimps who paved the way for the United States' successful missions into space and to acknowledge the chimps' contributions to the space program. Save the Chimps was established in 1997 in response to the U.S. Air Force's announcement that it was getting out of the chimpanzee research business. In 1999, Save the Chimps was awarded permanent custody of 21 chimps, survivors and descendants of those captured in Africa in the 1950s and used by the Air Force as test subjects for the original NASA space program. This event marked the first time astronauts visited the sanctuary. Goodall read a statement and presented Commander Carpenter and Captain Crippen with a plaque to honor their extraordinary efforts to the United States space program and for their recognition of the chimpanzees. |
