Take on the 13K Durrell Challenge to save species from extinction. Through Durrell's work in the wild and at Jersey Zoo we recover wildlife, revive ecosystems and reconnect people to nature.

Story

https://www.durrell.org/wildlife/

I strongly believe in the protection of environement, fauna and flora, which are the first human heritage.

Having participated in several wildlife protection projects on the Red Sea coast, I was challenged by the Durrell organisation's cause and decided to dedicate a few months of my life to it by taking up the 5th Durrell Challenge which has been delayed to September 27th 2020; It is as much a physical challenging performance which implies a strong personnal organisation as the service of a cause that is dear to me.

Durrell is an international charity that is on a mission to save species from extinction and create a wilder, healthier more colourful world. Durrell's work in the wild and at Jersey Zoo recovers wildlife, revives ecosystems and reconnects people to nature.

Having spent a lot of time in Normandy's nature reserves from my childhood, I have been taught most of everything I know about flora and fauna by my grand parents, especially from my grand father, whom has passed away in 2016. He was indeed amazed by nature and wildlife. I was touched by this organization of the Channel Islands, which has launched its first Challenge that same year 2016.
