Jane (1019) was named after the famous female conservationist Dr. Jane Goodall. Jane (1019) is a dominant condor who is still very friendly with the less brave birds. On several occasions she was seen standing over Iniko (1031) when she first arrived, as if Jane was making sure Iniko (1031) got her share of the food. Jane (1019) also seemed to have a special friendship with condor 1045, one of the most dominant birds in the pen, who was transferred north for release in Yurok territory in 2022.
About the conservationist: Dr. 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.
