Goodall is in the news promoting the Disney Pictures film, Chimpanzees. Although she was not directly involved with production, her “See Chimpanzee, Save Chimpanzees” program receives a portion of the profits from ticket sales. April 20 to 26, 2012, Disneynature will make a donation to the Jane Goodall Institute through the Disney Worldwide Conservation Fund for each seat filled during a showing of Chimpanzees.
