| Reversbeschreibung | Two Pink Pigeons (Nesoenas mayeri) are depicted perched together on a rocky outcrop amid foliage, one standing prominently upright and the other in a lower, resting position, illustrating the endangered Mauritian species. The design is rendered in fine naturalistic detail, with the birds occupying the central field. The legend BAILIWICK OF JERSEY arcs along the upper periphery, with TWO POUNDS inscribed to the left of the birds, and WORLD WILDLIFE FUND 25TH ANNIVERSARY completing the legend along the lower periphery, commemorating the 25th anniversary of the World Wildlife Fund. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
The Pink Pigeon (*Nesoenas mayeri*) was by 1987 reduced to fewer than 20 wild individuals on Mauritius, making it one of the most critically endangered birds on earth. Jersey's involvement was direct: the Durrell Wildlife Conservation Trust, headquartered on the island, had been running a captive breeding program for the species since the early 1980s as part of Gerald Durrell's broader effort to prevent extinctions the international conservation establishment had largely written off.
This coin was issued in conjunction with that program — one of several Jersey wildlife series pieces tied to Durrell's work rather than to any monetary policy decision.
