From world-renowned scientist Jane Goodall, as seen in the new National Geographic documentary Jane, comes an inspiring message about the future of the animal kingdom.
With the insatiable curiosity and conversational prose that have made her a bestselling author, Goodall - along with Cincinnati Zoo Director Thane Maynard - shares fascinating survival stories about the American Crocodile, the California Condor, the Black-Footed Ferret, and more; all formerly endangered species and species once on the verge of extinction whose populations are now being regenerated.

At once a celebration of the animal kingdom and a passionate call to arms, HOPE FOR ANIMALS THEIR WORLD presents an uplifting, hopeful message for the future of animal-human coexistence.

From AudioFile:
Thane Maynard is the director of the Cincinnati Zoo.
Rather than just remind us once again that wildlife on the planet faces extinction, Jane Goodall shares some inspirational stories of endangered animals that have been restored to a bright future in the wild. Each account of a species being rescued bolsters hope for more public support and cooperation. Goodall is known for her 45 years of research with chimpanzees in Tanzania, and this audiobook demonstrates her diversity of knowledge about all animals. Although her voice shows its 75 years, her youthful personality and fresh outlook on learning shine through. Within a few minutes, listeners will be hooked on her ability to narrate stories written from her own experiences with wildlife restorationists. Her ideas and language depict a rich scientific education, but her message never becomes too complicated for any age group. J.A.H.
