#1019 "Jane" is named after conservationist Jane Goodall. Despite being one of the more dominant birds in the cohort, Jane is still very friendly with the less brave condors. On several occasions she was seen standing over Iniko #1031 when she first arrived, as if Jane was making sure Iniko got her share of the food! Jane also seems to have a special friendship with #1045, one of the most dominant birds in the pen, who will be transferred north for release in Yurok territory in 2022.
About the conservationist: Jane Goodall has devoted her life to studying chimpanzees and advocating for animal welfare. Her discovery in 1960 that chimpanzees use tools shook the long-held belief that this was a skill unique to humans. Not only have Dr. Goodall’s contributions to primatology transformed our understanding of our closest relatives, they have also inspired countless women to pursue conservation and brought much-needed new voices to these scientific fields.
