Orphans of the Wild: An African Naturalist in Pursuit of a Dream, by Vivian J. Wilson

The memoir of Vivian J. Wilson, a Zimbabwean biologist who founded Chipangali Wildlife Orphanage near Bulawayo in 1973 with his wife Paddy. It recounts the sanctuary's work rescuing and rehabilitating animals that had been orphaned, abandoned, injured or unsuccessfully raised as pets, work that later inspired a 26-episode television series broadcast internationally.
