Jane Goodall's Wild Chimpanzees
Showcased in beautiful IMAX format, this documentary takes viewers into the hearts, minds and world of chimpanzees as it profiles legendary scientist Dr. Jane Goodall's work among the chimps at Gombe Park on Africa's Lake Tanganyka. Dr. Goodall and other researchers give us an up-close look at the daily lives of the Gombe chimp families -- Fifi and sons Freud and alpha male Frodo, along with Gremlin, Gaia and the endearing Galahad.
From the archive
This is a story which began in 1960, when Jane Goodall first ventured into Tanzania's Gombe National Park to study chimpanzees in the wild. A two-year-old chimp named Fifi was one of the first chimps she got to know well. She is now the only chimp still living of those Jane met over thirty years ago ... In one of the most revealing portraits of animal behavior ever filmed, we witness the love of a mother, the rivalry of brothers, and the future hopes of the family that lie with the next generation. 1 videodisc (57 min.) : 4 3/4 in DVD Hosted and narrated by George Page Written by Anne MacLeod ; photography, John Waters, Gil Domb, Bill Wallauer ; sound, Bill Wallauer ; editing, David Dickie ; music, Jennie Muskett Originally produced in 1996 for the television series Nature
