Sir David Attenborough, Leonardo Dicaprio and Prince William are amongst those who have paid tribute to Dame Jane Goodall, a world-leading expert on chimpanzees, who has died aged 91.
Her work was published in leading journals, and in 1965 she made the front cover of National Geographic, introducing the world to the emotional and social lives of the primates.
The United Nations said it mourned the loss of Dr Goodall, saying that she "worked tirelessly for our planet and all its inhabitants, leaving an extraordinary legacy for humanity and nature".
Jane told the BBC in 2024: "We're in the midst of the sixth great extinction... the more we can do to restore nature and protect existing forests, the better."
