Loveable lemurs – Szeretnivaló lemúrok

Written by my husband, Steve: The island country of Madagascar is, along with the Galapagos Islands, a powerful magnet for those of us drawn to concentrations of rare, isolated, and endemic (occur nowhere else on earth) species.  For example, there are more than 11,000 endemic plant species.  At least 80% of the wildlife is endemic.

Discovering Madagascar – Felfedezzük Madagaszkárt

Madagascar, often referred to as the “eighth continent” because of its unique ecology, is a fascinating, eye-opening, and hidden paradise, the world’s fourth largest island in the Indian Ocean off the east coast of Africa.  It’s not easy to get there but my husband and I were already close, finishing our safari in Tanzania, so it wasn’t too complicated to travel there.
