![]() The Observer project was successful, and Adams and Carwardine developed a radio series around the same concept for BBC Radio 4. Adams was met in Madagascar by zoologist Mark Carwardine (who was working for the WWF at the time). The trip was part of a project by the World Wide Fund for Nature and British Sunday newspaper The Observer, sending well-known authors to remote places to seek endangered species and write articles for The Observer Magazine, to help raise awareness of ecological issues. In 1985, Douglas Adams went to Madagascar in search of the (possibly extinct) lemur the aye-aye. In 2009, the BBC broadcast a television follow-up series of the same name, with Stephen Fry replacing the late Adams. In the series, Adams and Carwardine travel to various locations in the hope of encountering species on the brink of extinction. ![]() Last Chance to See is a 1989 BBC radio documentary series and its accompanying book, written and presented by Douglas Adams and Mark Carwardine. ![]()
