Gerald Durrell introduces The Attic of the World

Australia has some of the world's most curious animals. Some, like the kangaroos, are causing concern to sheep farmers, and Gerald and Jacquie Durrell visit a New South Wales sheep farm to see the problem for themselves. They then find out how scientists are studying the problem, and see the most exciting event of their whole tour-the birth of a kangaroo.
