Stephen Fry at FFI - 'What was your strangest animal encounter when filming Last Chance To See?'

[hakaboy6924]

Weta's are like a giant cricket bit don't fly and grow to the size of your hand

[rampant1apart]

That is a very surprising and inspiring story. I can not imagine what it must have been like, to try to bring back a species with precisely -one- fertile female and -no- males!

"Two seconds to midnight" indeed!

Could you help me? Which animals is he talking about?

(Sorry, English is not my mother tongue.)

[FaunaFloraIntl]

He mention lions in Uganda, mountain gorillas, weta (insect species endemic to New Zealand) , and the Kakapo parrot.

If he can not understand stephen fry verbally, I doubt he will understand you non-verbally :(

[earlsalley]

Fry mentioned also an endangered insect in New Zealand - it urinated on his hand and he found he was allergic.

Absolutely brilliant!
