What type of researcher is Jane Goodall?

5 answers

An excellent researcher.
Could you please help me describe her research? I don't know what type of research she did, all i know is she observed chimps from a distance and found human like characteristics. Are there any terms for this research? (besides her being a primatologist)?
Have you Googled her?
Yes, but all i have found is that she is a famous researcher and conservationist.
