Gerald Durrell was not only a well known author and naturalist, he also firmly believed that zoos had a responsibility to save species from extinction. When he set out, most people didn't believe that animals were disappearing from the planet, and even if they were, why should humans care? Durrell Wildlife's mission is saving species from extinction. Zoos, in general, depress me - but I do admire the work done by Durrell and Jersey Zoo. (And love his books too)

Thank God for folks like Gerald Durrell 50 years of dedication. I like to think I do my part, as should we all.I am sure the animals are grateful also.

And they have links to their financial reports, too. Not a bad idea.

From the page: "Animal species are disappearing from the face of the earth at a terrifying rate. Some people think that trying to save them is a hopeless cause. But we disagree. With our scientific expertise, dedication and your support we CAN stop them from being lost forever. In fact that's exactly what Durrell Wildlife has been successfully doing for over 40 years. "

Great site from the man who wrote one of my favourite books - My Family And Other Animals.

"We hope that there will be fireflies and glow-worms at night to guide you and butterflies in the hedges and forests to greet you. We hope that your dawns will have an orchestra of bird song and that the sound of their wings....will dazzle you. We hope that there will still be extraordinary varieties of creatures sharing the land of the planet with you to enchant you and enrich your lives as they have done for us." This is what He said. My hero, Gerald Durrell, who should be much more known and followed.
