ABSTRACT={The author was born in France, into an academic and literary family, and ever since his earliest childhood has always been devoted to animals. While relating different episodes of his life, from childhood through to adulthood, he shows how he developed two driving ambitions, one for biology and the other for poetry. This unusual combination of interests ultimately led him to follow the two quite different directions, choosing to be both scientist and poet. The dual career path involved various surprises and difficulties that will be described.}}
