A Short Biography of Jane Goodall 

 

When Jane Goodall was young, she loved to observe animals and read books about nature. 

 

As she grew up, she developed a strong longing to study wildlife in Africa. 

 

She eventually got an opportunity at the age of 26 to do it. 

 

She moved to Tanzania and observed wild chimpanzees there. 

 

During this period of her studying, she made major discoveries about chimpanzee behavior. 

 

While researching chimpanzees, she learned about the destruction of animal habitats and the seriousness of animal rights violations. 

 

This acknowledgment led her to make another significant decision: 

 

to make people more aware about animal rights and welfare. 

 

She has done many things to put her decision into practice. 

 

For instance, she established an institute to support wildlife conservation and has spoken out against animal cruelty. 

 

Today, she is considered one of the most famous chimpanzee experts and animal rights activists. 

 

The way Jane Goodall has achieved her life aspirations is wonderful. 

 

When you dream in verbs like she did, you can increase your opportunities to make your own dreams come true. 

 

So, what are your career aspirations now?
