APOPO President Mic Billet and co-worker Patricia Van de Velde were pleased to meet Jane Goodall at her lecture "Reason for Hope" at the University of Antwerp. Jane Goodall is a renowned primatologist who did many years of research about chimpanzee behavior. Goodall is an avid and cherished supporter of APOPO and believes in the HeroRats and the changes they can make. She even made a video with Animal Planet when she visited our training center in Tanzania. The Jane Goodall Institute (http://www.janegoodall.org) advances the power of individuals to take informed and compassionate action to improve the environment for all living things. So APOPO takes this task for everybody concerned in demining and TBC, taking the rats as companions in this global action for change.
