Three Singles to Adventure

More about the book

World-renowned naturalist and writer Gerald Durrell ventured into the South American jungle to capture rare exotic animals for British zoos. However, this journey is far from a dull scientific expedition. Catching an anteater, electric eel, tiny monkey, or sloth is no easy feat, especially when encountering a moody anaconda! Durrell's books, beloved by millions of readers worldwide, are celebrated for their affectionate depictions of wildlife and humorous accounts of the adventures that zoologists face on their travels. Encounters with animals and indigenous people bring many surprises, and in the Amazonian Guyana, with its rainforests, rivers, and savannas, this is no exception.
