My Life with the Chimpanzees | Jane Goodall

so-so

Short and a decent intro into her life. Ended up listening to it on audiobook and the sound effects were a little much.

This short audiobook is a great introduction to the life and work of the iconic primatologist Jane Goodall. Especially well suited to a young audience, the audio includes sound effects that bring Jane Goodall‘s story to life. This definitely got me interested in learning more! Thanks to Libro.fm for the free listening copy!

I always enjoy hearing more from Jane Goodall. This is a short memoir from her earlier years and it was nice because you received more details her beginnings in Africa than you do in other books by here. I really enjoyed the story about the lions at their campsite and the call to action at the end about the need for conservation and environmental change. Quick read and worth the listen.

1. What we have is “Chimp Haven,” a sanctuary for rescued & retired chimps, many of them used laboratories. (I‘m very proud of this place, as you can tell!)
2. Yes, about 3 years ago (Shame on me!)
3. Koala bears 🐻 I love them!
4. Yes—giraffes, dolphins & raccoons (do raccoons 🦝 count?)
5. Hiya: @Leftcoastzen @Velvetfur @Chrissyreadit @Klou @EadieB
And thanks @Crazeedi for #thursdaysurvey (on Friday 😂)

Chrissyreadit Thanks for tagging me! I had a previous tag so my answers were up. 5y

ravenlee Hey - you‘re in my neck of the woods (NWLA)! I haven‘t made it to Chimp Haven, though. 5y

gradcat @Chrissyreadit Sorry! I guess I was just thinking of you! 🥰 5y

gradcat @ravenlee Where are you? I‘m in Shreveport. My brother was working on a project last time I went, and so I tagged along with him. I think I‘d like to go again, though. 5y

Chrissyreadit @gradcat 🥰🥰🥰- you‘re in LA? How funny that the zoo in New Orleans is one of my favorites! Albino Crocs!!!! 5y

ravenlee I live in Bossier! Small world. I kept trying to get to Chimp Haven in the fall when my daughter was studying animals for science, but we got lazy. 5y

gradcat @Chrissyreadit I have to admit that I‘ve been to the N.O. zoo more often than I‘ve been to Chimp Haven. That‘s really terrible, but when you go to New Orleans, the zoo is a big draw—and yes, I, too, love those albino alligators. They‘re really kind of magical 🐊! ♥️ 5y

gradcat @ravenlee It‘s not like you can just go there, either. They have very specific hours. My cousins were here visiting from San Diego & Virginia a few years ago, and we had to make a special appointment to go! Oh, and yes! We‘re very close! I have two very special friends who live in Bossier! ♥️ (edited) 5y

Who else is thinking about Halloween?

I tried to convince my husband Ad(d)am that we should go as Wednesday & Pugsley... but he wouldn't agree to be Wednesday. 😂 And if I can't have my dream of seeing a bearded Wednesday, I want no part of it!

Now I'm choosing between: Charlie Bucket, Baa Baa Black Sheep/The Black Sheep of the Family, Jane Goodall, and/or Coraline. Decisions, decisions!
