No, Just No

Seriously, whoever thought that making a Jane Goodall Barbie was a good idea needs to be disabused of this concept:

British primatologist Jane Goodall has got a Barbie in her likeness, fulfilling a longtime wish of having her own doll to inspire young girls.

Mattel Inc unveiled the new Barbie, which the toymaker says is made from recycled plastic, as part of its Inspiring Women Series, nodding to Goodall’s groundbreaking studies of chimpanzees and conservation efforts.

While I appreciate her contributions to the field of primatology, making her a Barbie doll is really, really creepy.
