We are deeply saddened by the passing of Dr. Jane Goodall, a true pioneer in wildlife conservation and a cherished friend of San Diego Zoo Wildlife Alliance. Dr. Goodall’s lifelong commitment to wildlife conservation and education has inspired countless individuals around the world. In 1974, we had the immense honor of presenting her with the Gold Medal of Conservation from the San Diego Zoological Society, recognizing her extraordinary contributions to understanding and protecting wildlife. More recently, in 2022, Dr. Goodall joined us on the San Diego Zoo Wildlife Alliance podcast, where she shared her wisdom, insights, and a powerful reminder of the importance of individual action and collective efforts to protect our planet. On behalf of the entire San Diego Zoo Wildlife Alliance family, we extend our heartfelt condolences to Dr. Goodall’s loved ones and the global community of conservationists who mourn her loss. She will be profoundly missed, and here at San Diego Zoo Wildlife Alliance, we will continue to honor her lasting legacy. (fb)
