A weekly programme about work in the world of science
Expedition to Chile by Martin Holdgate , Ph.D. of the Department of Zoology. The Durham Colleges, Durham University Many plants and animals are found both in South America and in New Zealand and Tasmania-why, no one is certain. Moreover, the flora and fauna of the world are changing so rapidly as a result of man's activities that precise information about their natural distribution may soon be unobtainable.
Work has already been done on the biology of New Zealand, but Chile has so far been little studied. It is for this reason that the Royal Society is sending an expedition, organised by Dr. Holdgate, to southern Chile later this year.
