Partula snails - tiny tree snails from French Polynesia - were driven to extinction in the wild. But a team of scientists came to their rescue and an international rescue mission saved several species. Over the past 30 years, they built up their populations in captive breeding programmes in zoos around the world. Now field biologist Trevor Coote, local scientist Rodrigo Navarra and International Coordinator for the Partula Conservation Programme, Paul Pearce Kelly are taking the snails home.
