    In one week a new book will be released that will be of interest (I predict) to a large number of ZooChatters. The full title is The Ark And Beyond: The Evolution Of Zoo And Aquarium Conservation. I learned about it from the Phoenix Zoo Facebook page, as the zoo is hosting a book launch party and discussion in March. Here is the Amazon link: https://www.amazon.com/Ark-Beyond-C...1518586354&sr=1-1&keywords=the+ark+and+beyond

    Does anyone have a COMPLETE set of Gerald Durrell books ? I am starting to collect them. They are very enjoyable reading.

    @Arizona Docent I pre-ordered that book months ago and I'm looking forward to it arriving in my mailbox.

    @wally war eagle I'm fairly certain that I have at least 90% of Gerald Durrell's books...and most of them are what I'd deem a 'masterpiece' of literature. High praise indeed!
