Gerald Durrell and his wife are the proud owners of a small zoo on the island of Jersey. But there's one thing that's a small zoo - a bigger one! So Durrell heads off to South America to collect more animals. Along windswept Patagonian shores and in Argentine tropical forests, he encounters a range of animals from penguins to elephant seals. But as always, he is drawn to those rare and interesting creatures which he hopes will thrive and breed in captivity. *** Quantity Available: 1. Category: Biography & Autobiography; Animals & Birds.
