Isle of Man in rare breeds 'Noah's Ark' plan
The Isle of Man has been chosen as the "ideal geographical location" for a Noah's Ark-type project to protect rare breeds from extinction.
The plan is to establish a network of rare animal breeding centres, isolated from the UK and Ireland, as an insurance against widespread disease.
Organiser Dr Paul Davis said the Irish Sea was a "natural disease barrier".
