Durrell Wildlife Conservation Trust

Durrell Wildlife Conservation Trust is a charitable organization dedicated to protecting endangered species and their habitats worldwide. Founded in 1959 by Gerald Durrell, it conducts breeding programs, research, and habitat restoration to prevent species from going extinct. Its work involves caring for animals both in its own facilities and in the wild, focusing on species under threat from habitat loss, poaching, or other environmental pressures. The trust aims to promote biodiversity and ensure the survival of some of the world's most vulnerable species through conservation efforts, education, and international collaborations.
