520    "In 1954, David Attenborough, a young television presenter,
       was offered the opportunity of a lifetime--to travel the 
       world finding rare and elusive animals for the London 
       Zoo's collection, and to film the expedition for the BBC 
       for a new show called Zoo Quest. This is the story of 
       those voyages. Staying with local tribes while trekking in
       search of giant anteaters in Guyana, Komodo dragons in 
       Indonesia, and armadillos in Paraguay, he and the rest of 
       the team contended with cannibal fish, aggressive tree 
       porcupines, and escape-artist wild pigs, as well as 
       treacherous terrain and unpredictable weather, to record 
       the incredible beauty and biodiversity of these regions. 
       Written with his trademark wit and charm, Adventures of a 
       Young Naturalist is not just the story of a remarkable 
       adventure, but of the man who made us fall in love with 
       the natural world and taught us the importance of 
       protecting it--and who is still doing so today"--
