When Jane was little, her father gave her a toy chimpanzee named Jubilee. This inspired her lifelong love of animals, and after living with chimpanzees in their natural habitat, she now educates the public on animal rights. When young Greta learned of the climate crisis, she couldn't understand why people in power were not doing anything to save our Earth. But her "School Strike for Climate" has now inspired millions, and taught everyone her valuable message: "No one is too small to make a difference." As a child, David spent hours in the science library, collating his own specimens and creating a mini animal museum. Now, he is loved all over the world for telling the untold stories of these animals.
