Beginning January 15th, 2005-

Jane Goodall’s Wild Chimpanzees offers a comprehensive look at the 40 years of this world-renowned wildlife biologist’s legendary work with the chimpanzees of Tanzania’s Gombe Stream National Park. The 42-minute takes viewers into the realm of the wild chimpanzee, a world few humans have experienced. Fascinated by the 20-square-mile park’s charismatic inhabitants, Dr. Goodall established what has become the longest continuously running study of animals in the wild. Her discoveries­including her unprecedented observations of chimpanzees making and using tools­have revolutionized our understanding of chimps and of human behavior. A coproduction of the Science Museum of Minnesota, Science North, and Discovery Place in cooperation with the Jane Goodall Institute, Jane Goodall’s Wild Chimpanzees is sponsored by Bank of America, with major funding provided by the National Science Foundation.

Vikings: Journey to New Worlds examines the historical and cultural impact and scientific and technological achievements of these legendary seafaring explorers. Focusing on their greatest accomplishment­the exploration of North America 500 years before Columbus­Vikings examines how this remarkable feat began with the settlement of Iceland, the exploration and settlement of Greenland by Erik the Red, and, 15 years later, the exploration of Vinland (the eastern coast of North America) by Erik’s son Leif. Shot on location in Iceland, Greenland, and Newfoundland, this breathtaking large-format film brings the Vikings to life.

SCHEDULE: Jane Goodall’s Wild Chimpanzees will be presented daily (11:30 a.m. and 1:30 and 3:30 p.m.), beginning January 15, 2004, alternating with Vikings: Journey to New Worlds (10:30 a.m. and 12:30, 2:30, and 4:30 p.m.)

COST: Tickets, which include Museum admission, are $19.00 for adults, $14.00 for students and seniors, and $11.00 for children.
