Durrell is an international charity on a mission to save species from extinction. What makes them different

is that they help all animals, even the “little guys”, the inconspicuous creatures that are just as crucial to

the ecology of the planet as the more appealing ones.

They speak up for the animals that other people forget.

Field staff operate 50 projects in 18 countries, and the Durrell Wildlife Park is home to over 120 species, more than half of which are endangered in the wild.

To date, more than 4100 individuals from 137 countries have participated in Durrell courses and workshops around the world, and are supported by the Durrell Learning Network. Another key point of their work

is the investment in training and empowering local communities where conservation means both

protecting wildlife and helping them find solutions

to improve their well being, thus reducing pressures

 on their surrounding environment.
