Konrad Lorenz was born on November 7, 1903 in Vienna, Austria. As a little boy, he loved animals.When he was 10 years old, Lorenz became aware of the existence of the Theory of Evolution through reading a book by Wilhelm Bölsche in which he was fascinated by a picture of an Archaeopteryx.As he grew towards adulthood he wanted to become a paleontologist, however, he reluctantly followed his father's wishes, and studied medicine at the University of Vienna and at Columbia University. He later regarded this compliance to have been in his own best interests as one of his teachers of anatomy, Ferdinand Hochstetter, proved to be a brilliant comparative anatomist and embryologist and a dedicated teacher of the comparative method.He gained a degree in medicine in 1929 and was awarded a doctorate in zoology from the University of Munich in 1936. He had published his famous study of imprinting in young ducklings and goslings in 1935.
He is the more important founder of ethology , and discover the imprinting in the animals .
the imprinting is when an animal see for the first time a big objet (wen borns) and he folllow the objet, lorenz put hem like the parents and the ducks follow hem.
I like hem because he loves the animals, he works for them even when his father don`t want.
he is an exaple of life,he shows as than if you want you can do enything.
