Jersey

Jersey island, 117 sq km, in the English Channel, largest of the Channel Islands, which are dependencies of the British crown. It is 15 mi (24 km) from the Normandy coast of France and SE of Guernsey. Saint Helier, the capital, is on St. Aubin's Bay. The mild climate (plants requiring subtropical conditions grow without protection), the moderate rainfall, and the scenery have contributed to make Jersey, like other Channel Islands, a vacation resort. The Jersey Zoological Park was founded in 1959 to protect endangered animals.
