Gombe Research Center is a scientific facility located in Gombe National Park, Tanzania, dedicated to studying wild chimpanzees. Established in 1965 by primatologist Jane Goodall, it allows researchers to observe and gather data on chimpanzee behavior, social relationships, and ecology in their natural habitat. The center helps scientists understand primate biology and conservation challenges, providing valuable insights that also inform efforts to protect these intelligent animals and their environment for future generations.
