PORTLAND, Ore. ( KOIN ) — Famed chimpanzee expert Jane Goodall is set to make an appearance in Oregon next month.
She will speak at Salem’s Elsinore Theatre on Thursday, Apr. 10 at 7 p.m. The event is one installment of a visiting lecture series organized by the Senior Advocates for Generational Equity, which strives to improve the environment, equality, education and overall quality of life for future generations.

According to the Jane Goodall Institute, the 90-year-old primatologist rose to fame while studying in Gombe, Tanzania at 26 — when she learned that chimpanzees make and use her own tools.
Goodall launched her namesake conservation organization later in 1977. It now has more than 20 chapters worldwide, including some in Australia, Argentina and her home country of the United Kingdom.
