**Jane Goodall’s Love for Animals**

 * Jane Goodall loved animals even as a child. When she was just over one year old, her father gave her a toy chimpanzee, which she named Jubilee. She carried Jubilee with her everywhere. Today, more than 73 years later, Jubilee – now completely bald from so many hugs – sits on Jane’s dresser in England!

 * “Quite apart from Jubilee, I have been fascinated by live animals from the time when I first learned to crawl,” says Jane. “One of my earliest recollections is of the day that I hid in a small stuffy hen house in order to see how a hen laid an egg. I emerged after about five hours. The whole household had apparently been searching for me for hours, and mother had even rung the police to report me missing.” But when Jane’s mother saw how excited Jane was, she didn’t scold her. Instead she sat down and listened to Jane tell the wonderful story of how a hen lays an egg.**
 * Jane also spent a lot of time with a wonderful dog, Rusty, who taught her that animals have minds, personalities and emotions. You can read more about Rusty and all of Jane’s life in her book, //My Life with the Chimpanzees//.**
