<p><span style="color: #006400;"><strong>The cycling gorilla is back! And he brought all his friends, too! <br /></strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #006400;">For the second time, a team of Cambridge University Press, supported by friends and family members, took part in the annual London to Cambridge charity bike ride to raise money for <a title="Fauna & Flora International" href="http://www.fauna-flora.org/" target="_blank"><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Fauna & Flora International</span></strong></a>, including Rob Harris from FFI in his thick, furry <a href="http://a8.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc4/39356_134647423238302_126999244003120_151562_7945690_n.jpg" target="_blank">gorilla costume</a>. And he was not alone this time: we also had a lion, a jelly fish, a fox (or was it a red panda?), a bear, a crocodile, a pack of wolves and a zebra on the team - check out the <a title="photos" href="http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.224193604283683.47740.126999244003120&type=1" target="_blank">photos</a> on our facebook page. <strong><br /></strong></span></p>

<p><span style="color: #000000;"><span style="color: #006400;"><strong>Biodiversity</strong>,</span> the variety of life on Earth, drives the life support systems on which humans and all other species rely. <span style="color: #006400;"><span style="color: #000000;">The people at</span><strong> Fauna & Flora International</strong></span> (FFI) are working for a sustainable future for the planet, where biodiversity is effectively conserved by the people who live closest to it, supported by the global community.</span></p>
