There are two books in this book:. The book "New Noah" by the world-famous English zoologist and talented writer Gerald Darrell tells about his expeditions to the tropics for unusual representatives of the local fauna. You will learn about how to catch and transport dangerous animals to the zoo, how to care for them in captivity, learn their habits and mores. This book can be considered a kind of piggy bank of interesting instructive stories about the life and entertaining adventures of our smaller brothers. “The Beasts in My Bed” by Gerald Darrell’s wife, Jackie Darrell In this book, she talks about how they met, how hard it was for her to be with such a tireless adventurer, as Jerry turned out to be, and, of course, about animals. Gerald Durrell himself provided the book with sparkling commentary in the best traditions of English humor. Other books by Gerald Darrell on the website:Oslokrady. Speaking bundle.
