About this book

David Attenborough recounts the early expeditions behind Zoo Quest, when filming wildlife for television accompanied the collection of animals for London Zoo. Searches in Guyana, Indonesia and Paraguay brought the team into unfamiliar terrain and close encounters with animals. Looking back, he also explains how television production and zoo practices have changed, placing these travels within an earlier approach to presenting the natural world.
