Today
we visited the lovely Anja community reserve where infant ring-tailed lemurs
played at our feet, Grandidier’s iguanids toasted themselves on granite
outcrops, and a Madagascarophis colubrinus
snake devoured a hapless Oustalet’s chameleon. This reserve is community
conservation at its best. I hope the model can be replicated elsewhere in
Madagascar. The need is great.
New today at Anja
