'Dodo Tortoise’ is a homage to the extinct dodo, also the iconic symbol of Jersey Zoo, chosen by the founder Gerald Durrell as a reminder of man’s wanton environmental destruction. The design aims to remind us of species that are yet to be ‘as dead as a dodo’ and to protect the many creatures that are still among us.
