He's one of Fifi's offspring.

And what he'll do is display that's charging with his hair bristling, dragging branches and things straight towards me, pull me over, stamp on me, perhaps display away, come back and do the same thing again.

I can only think that it's because of all the people working at Gombe.

Fresh Air

He has the least fear of me.

Fresh Air
Jane Goodall

I've always been able to get very close to even nervous individuals, and that's because I'm calm and quiet and I don't try to get too close and I don't push.

approach a nervous young chimp which i have to do all the time because one of the things that we're doing with the institute is to rescue orphan chimps who whose mothers have been shot by hunters they're confiscated by the government and we care for them and to see some of those pathetic little orphans in the markets being sold at the street side they're dehydrated their eyes are dull they're losing hope they're losing health and you go up and you make this soft little

Fresh Air

which is a gentle greeting, and they'll sometimes put their arm around your neck.

Fresh Air
Jane Goodall

How come you wouldn't use that language in the wild?
