Inspiration from a gift
When Jane was a child, her father gave her a toy chimpanzee. She liked it very much, and from that day on, she became really interested in animals. This toy was the starting-point of her interest in animals.
Parental support and advice
Her mother’s words “If you really want something, work hard and never give up. Then you’ll find a way.” provided her with mental support and a guiding principle. This positive attitude influenced her to pursue her dream.
Personal determination and perseverance
Despite facing some questioning about her research methods (some people thought she treated chimpanzees too much like people), Jane did not give up. She persisted in her study of chimpanzees in East Africa for years, which shows her strong determination and perseverance to turn her interests into a career.
