Discovering Chimpanzees welcomes visitors into the world of Jane Goodall and chimpanzees through sound, visual effects and interactive displays.
Four separately themed areas, The Chimp Forest, The Work of Jane Goodall, Primates and Reason for Hope combine to re-create a jungle environment in an urban setting. Through customized computers visitors can explore chimpanzee behavior in addition to learning to walk and communicate like a chimp. Field notes, photographs, video clips and other artifacts are used to make Jane’s 40 years of research come alive for children and adults alike. Her Gombe jungle home is authentically recreated and vintage footage will take visitors on a journey through some of her most memorable and remarkable achievements.
The lifeline of twelve families of primates, their habitats and threats to their survival will be explored and visitors can compare their own physical characteristics to those of the primates. Much of Jane Goodall’s recent work has been focused on the future and a portion of the display celebrates those who deal with environmental and social issues. As visitors leave, they will be inspired by Jane herself, with a life-sized video image and her message of hope which challenges
everyone to be aware of their ecological footprint.
