Just imagine living your whole life loving animals. Jane Goodall is a hero because she longed to help animals. She also turned all of her energy to help save other species. Jane also helped saved my kinds of animals in Africa. The hero who is important to me, and has the qualities of being a hero, is Jane Goodall.

The hero that I am going to tell you about is Jane Goodall. Jane Goodall was born in London, England, on April 3, 1934. Jane grew up in a house on the ocean side. When Jane was young she had a passion for animals. Later along in life, Jane married a photographer but later got divorced and married a politician. He died of cancer. In her twenties, Jane found herself in Africa.

Jane is a hero because she longed to help animals. Jane also has inspiring words, for example, “What an opportunity without a person to use it.” Jane also took classes to prepare herself for her first trip to Africa. All of her teachers were delighted to see that she would run the extra mile and save our planet and help all the animals in the world.

Jane Goodall is a grand example of a hero to others near and far. One way that she is a hero is that she helped saved many kinds of animals in Africa. She also helped save our planet. As Jane was growing up she found more respect for animals through her mother and her own love for nature. Hero's to others, near and far, is a hero who sets out to help others. Jane has all of these qualities.

“If you really want something and you work hard for it, and take advantage of opportunities, and never give up you will find a way!” One way you could be a hero is to follow your heart and do the right thing. Then you will go far. Jane changed many lives by helping animals that were endangered or not understood. Jane Goodall is great example of a hero.
