Description

The fourth largest island in the world, Madagascar is home to woodlice the size of golf balls, moths the size of regency fans and the Aye-Aye, a type of lemur held by local superstition to be an omen of death. But when Gerald Durrell visited the island, the destruction of the forests meant that the Aye-Aye and many other unique creatures were in danger of extinction.
