Article Summary from page 81
|
|
Having split from the African mainland some 160 million years ago, the world's fourth largest island boasts a biodiversity and levels of endemism rivalled by few other destinations. Lemurs are the best known of Madagascar's unique fauna, but the sense of 'doing things differently' extends to the plants and the culture.
Hilary Bradt, a veteran of 20-plus trips, explains why she can't get enough of this extraordinary place.
