What critisism did Jane Goodall face?

Answer 1

At first, she had no scientific background so no one would take her seriously if her mentor, Louis Leakey, hadn't arranged for her to get a PhD. at Cambridge University.

Answer 2

Jane Goodall faced criticism for her unorthodox research methods, as she developed close relationships with the animals she studied, which was seen as unscientific at the time. Some critics also questioned her lack of formal scientific training when she first began her research. Additionally, some doubted the validity of her findings, especially her observations of chimpanzees using tools, until they were later confirmed.
