As a child, Teddy was extremely sick suffering from severe Asthma and tone deafness. However, his parents never gave up on their mischievous hyperactive boy. T.R.'s father built him a weight set upstairs in the four-story brownstone home which helped build Teddy's strong physique. After getting in a fight with two other boys, Teddy's father hired a professional boxer to help him with his fighting skills even though Teddy never had any athletic ability. Once when he was 7 at a local market, he spotted a dead seal which made him grow a life long interest in zoology. Roosevelt was always trying to prove that he had the stanima to be an adventurous outdoors man despite his illnesses. Roosevelt ended up becoming everything from a naturalist and a cowboy to the governor of New York, serving in the Spanish-American War, and becoming the 26th President of the United States from 1901-1909.
