OUR EARTH PAPER

Durrell Wildlife Conservation Trust is an international charity working to save species from extinction. Headquartered at Jersey Zoo in the Channel Islands, Durrell focuses on the most threatened species in the most threatened places.

Established by author and conservationist Gerald Durrell in 1959, Durrell’s overall aim is for more diverse, beautiful and resilient natural landscapes in which species can thrive and people can enjoy a deeper connection with nature. Their approach concentrates on the rewilding of animals, the rewilding of ecosystems and the rewilding of people.

Creating A Wilder, Healthier, More Colourful World

Durrell Wildlife Conservation Trust is an international charity, headquartered at Jersey Zoo in the Channel Islands. Saving species from extinction has always been at the heart of what they do, but their ambitions for bringing about change go beyond this.

For over 60 years, Durrell has been working to not only prevent extinctions but recover populations of threatened species and drive the rewilding of ecosystems. Through their work in the wild and at Jersey Zoo, Durrell is reconnecting people with nature and helping to drive the societal change needed to save and restore the natural world.
