The Dodo Club is the children's wing of the Durrell Wildlife Conservation Trust based in Jersey, Channel Islands.
The main focus of the club is environmental awareness and citizen science projects among younger members of the Trust. The Dodo Club is so named because the logo of the Durrell Wildlife Conservation Trust is a Dodo, chosen by the founder Gerald Durrell as a reminder of man's wanton environmental destruction.

“At first, it must be remembered, that [women] can never accomplish anything until they put womanhood ahead of wifehood, and make motherhood the highest office on the social scale.”
