珍妮·古道尔博士 | 冈比吉尼斯世界记录

Hello this is Jane Goodall, and this is an entry from the Guinness book of records. It recognizes the wild chimpanzee research at Gombe national park as one of the two longest-running continuous studies of primates.

你好，我是珍妮·古道尔，这是吉尼斯世界纪录中的一项条目。它认证了冈比国家公园的野生黑猩猩研究项目，这两项研究是对灵长类动物持续时间最长的研究之一。

During this study, we've come to understand the complex behavior of these close relatives of ours, and we're still learning. Back in the 1960s, science maintained that there was a sharp line, dividing us from all other animals.

在这项研究中，我们已经了解了我们这些近亲的复杂行为，并在进一步学习研究。20世纪60年代，科学界坚持认为有一条清晰的线，将我们与所有其他动物分界。

Because of our close genetic similarity with chimpanzees, the composition of our DNA and theirs differs by only just over one percent. And because of striking similarities in social behavior, it's now accepted that we are a part of and not separated from the rest of the animal kingdom.

由于我们与黑猩猩的基因非常相似，我们的DNA和黑猩猩的只有百分之一左右的不同。而且由于社会行为的惊人相似性，人们已经接受了我们是动物王国的一部分，而不是与其割裂开的。

Sadly, chimpanzee populations around Africa as well as those of many other species are under great threat due to habitat loss, the bush meat trade, wildlife trafficking, the growth of human populations and climate change.

令人难过的是，由于栖息地的丧失、丛林肉贸易、贩运野生动物、人类的增长和气候变化，非洲各地的黑猩猩种群及其他种群的黑猩猩正受到巨大威胁。

But by working with the often very poor human communities, living in and around chimpanzee habitats, helping them find ways to improve their lives without destroying the forest for a better future for their own children as well as those of the chimpanzees and other wildlife.

但是，通过与生活在黑猩猩栖息地及周围的非常贫穷的人类社区合作，在不破坏森林的情况下帮助他们找到改善生活的方法，为他们的孩子以及黑猩猩和其他野生动物创造更好的未来。

And now these people have become our partners in conservation. And I invite everyone to join us in celebration as we work towards a hopeful future for our closest living relatives in the animal kingdom. Thank you!

而现在这些人已经成为我们保护黑猩猩的伙伴。我邀请大家加入并和我们一起庆祝，因为我们正努力为动物王国中人类最亲近的生物亲属创造一个充满希望的未来。谢谢你们！
