Durrell鈥檚 Orangutan

Durrell鈥檚 Orangutan

It is fifty years since the famous naturalist Gerald Durrell turned his conservation vision into a charity.

He wanted to create an organisation to save species from extinction.

麻豆社 Jersey will be examining how successfully the Durrell organisation is fulfilling the ambitions of its founder, in Jersey and across the world.

This weekend you will be able to see exclusive footage of the birth of Durrell鈥檚 newest Sumatran orangutan in a 麻豆社 television documentary.

It is thought to be the first time a Sumatran orangutan birth has been caught on camera.
