In the field

Durrell strives to protect and restore some of the most threatened species in the most threatened habitats around the world. Biodiversity is essential for human survival and our aim is to ensure we can persist alongside the myriad of plants and animals that inhabit our planet.

With our international headquarters in Jersey, Durrell has built up a network of projects and staff in some of the world’s key biodiversity areas. For almost 50 years we have been working to protect critically endangered plant and animal species. But while we have a worldwide reputation for saving species that are on the edge of extinction, we also work with a wide range of stakeholders to address threats before they become too extreme. That way we combine short term immediate action to rescue species most in need with longer term responses to halt population declines and restore habitats.

Madagascar Diaries

"On 23rd October 2011 I visited Madagascar, Durrell's biggest conservation programme, to see first hand how Durrell has been working with the local communities to save some of the countries most iconic species, for 25 years.

Here you can watch (and read) my Madagascar Diaries, see how I experienced the real Madagascar, including the highs and lows that the Durrell team based in Madagascar face every day."
