Jane Goodall

by Annah

I chose Jane Goodall as my hero because she saves animals from extinction and takes care of the environment.


Jane Goodal was born in London, England, on April 3, 1934. In April of 1965 Jane earned her Ph.D in ethology from Cambridge University. Jane started an animal club when she was young. She started the club with her sister Judy and her two friends Sue and Sally. They called their club the Alligator Society. Jane's family was Edward, her father, Vanne her mother,Judy her sister,and her grandmother Danny.

Jane faced the obstacles of being married three times, first in 1980 and her husband died of cancer. Then she got a divorce to her second husband.

Jane Goodall is a hero to me because she is selfless. She tries to save animals that are almost extinct and she tries to save the environment. She is lovable because she loves animals and takes care of them. Jane Goodall achieved to tell people more about chimps and she was awarded a metal for her achievement.

Jane Goodall influenced me to try to stop animal abuse, help animals that are almost extinct, and try to save the environment.
