Zoo Quest to Madagascar is the full account of David Attenborough's time travelling throughout Madagascar to film remarkable animals which live nowhere else in the world: spectacular chameleons nearly three feet in length; geckos so well camouflaged they are almost impossible to find; millipedes the size of golf-balls. But the principal objective of the expedition was to film and observe lemurs, seeing brown lemurs, gentle lemurs, ruffed lemurs, ringed lemurs and mouse lemurs. The Zoo Quest series details David Attenborough's early expeditions of, setting him on his path as the world's most widely viewed documentarian of natural history and a much-loved British national treasure. As part of the ground-breaking 1954 BBC television series developed in association with London Zoo, which would form the basis for the documentary work that would later propel him to global acclaim, the Zoo Quest books presents Attenborough's earliest accounts of expeditions to far-flung regions in Latin America, Asia, and Oceania.In this collection, you will read a young Attenborough as he traverses distant lands, meets local peoples, and of course as he comes into contact with all manner of wildlife. To read Zoo Quest is to catch a glimpse of how the world's foremost conservationist began his career. The books display his characteristic charm and concern for all things natural, offering the reader not only a greater appreciation for and understanding of Attenborough, but also of nature and the world.
