Famed anthropologist Jane Goodall is blaming humans abuse of Mother Nature for the global coronavirus crisis.
It is our disregard for nature and our disrespect of the animals we should share the planet with that has caused this pandemic, that was predicted long ago, the 86-year-old animal expert told Agence France-Presse (AFP).
The British scientist, best known for her lifelong study of chimpanzees, argued that destroying habitats has forced animals into closer proximity, spreading diseases and ultimately infecting humans.
She said the deadly crisis also highlights the dangers of meat markets for wild animals in Asia, especially China, and our intensive farms where we cruelly crowd together billions of animals around the world.
These are the conditions that create an opportunity for the viruses to jump from animals across the species barrier to humans, she told AFP while promoting a new National Geographic documentary, Jane Goodall: The Hope.

LOL...me, too.
Maybe it’s the ghost of Jane Goodall?
Nope...just checked....she’s 86 and lives in London.
This is so accurate. Both are media creations. Cult of personality.
It’s not bad enough that all the socialist wannabes are slithering out of the woodwork. Now the demented earth mamas have to join them. Soon, we’ll have enough of a quorum to start an asylum.
She identifies as an 86 year-old chimpanzee, the world’s record for a chimp.

We’re all huddled tightly, and spreading this virus. Goodall is demanding that we huddle even tighter. Bullsh*t. The virus is spreading fastest in the places where are huddled the tightest. The virus started in a corner of the world where leftists like Goodall are tightly huddled, and forced the virus on the rest of us.
She’s been ‘clutching her pearls’ for over the last 60 years!
Little Miss Sunshine has never been her nickname.
i disrespect animals everyday by cooking them..
“Jane! You ignorant slut!”
Honestly, I did not know that she was stealing air.
“And what have we learned with all her research?
“Apes Will Be Apes””
****
Yup. Not an earth shattering scientific work unlike E=MC2. Monkeys throw sh*t at each other and climb trees..and she spent 20 years to discover that?? effing waste of time.
She said the deadly crisis also highlights the dangers of meat markets for wild animals in Asia, especially China...
Have they started calling her racist yet?
Liberal Ghouls must always insert their pet issue into any world event.
Did you read past the headline where she calls out China for its exotic animal meat markets? Probably not
Is she saying anything much removed than what a lot of people here are saying?
Or are people just joking about the “wet markets” and people eating bats and dogs?
Pope Francis has sort of been peddling this same garbage, though not in the exact wording.
You should not trust that word (opinion) "probably".
