Jane Goodall's Posthumous Netflix Interview Jokes About Sending Leaders on Musk Spaceship

Recorded months before her death for Netflix's Famous Last Words, the episode reflects her lifelong conservation focus with characteristic candor.

Overview

  • Netflix released the conversation posthumously as part of its new series Famous Last Words, hosted by Brad Falchuk.
  • Taped in March with the understanding it would air after her passing at 91, the interview revisits her life and work.
  • Goodall joked about putting Elon Musk, President Donald Trump, Vladimir Putin, Xi Jinping, and Benjamin Netanyahu's government on a Musk spaceship.
  • She closed with a call to retain hope and to multiply small daily actions to safeguard the planet for future generations.
  • The barbed remarks align with her prior critiques, including a 2022 comment likening Trump's dominance displays to male chimpanzee behavior.
