A Life With Animals is a photographic celebration of The Aspinall  Foundation and family. It all began with a handful of exotic animals
and a win at the races, the rest is history - three decades of it in  fact! This delightful book, published to commemorate The Aspinall
Foundation's 30th Anniversary, takes the reader on a memorable  pictorial journey through the charity's archives, including some rare
glimpses into the Aspinall family photo album. On almost every page,  the love and respect for animals is palpable. A Life With Animals is a  truly unforgettable and inspiring story of a unique family and  remarkable wildlife charity.


John Damian Androcles Aspinall (born 24 May 1960) is an English  businessman and conservationist. He has raised and released a number  of zoo-bred lowland gorillas in Gabon. Aspinall is the son of Jane  Gordon Hastings and John Victor Aspinall who was a zoo owner, gambler,  founder of Aspinall's, conservationist, and the stepson of Sir George  Osborne, 16th Baronet. Aspinall's step-mother is Lady Sarah Aspinall.  In 1972, his father married Lady Sarah "Sally" Courage, widow of the  racing driver Piers Courage and daughter of Francis Curzon, 5th Earl  Howe. Aspinall's wealth is estimated to be around £200m. Aspinall  acquired his wealth independently in the real estate business, his  father refusing to assist him financially. After his father's death in  2000, Damian bought back the family casino interests with the help of  Australian associate James Packer, son of Kerry Packer. He runs the  John Aspinall Foundation started by his father, and his stated goal is  to breed gorillas and return them to the wild. He manages Howletts  Wild Animal Park and nearby Port Lympne Wild Animal Park, where 120  gorillas have been born and 77 presently live.
