Daraina & Loky Manambato Okt29 When we finally reached the edge of the dry deciduous forest, Amidou, our guide and somehow lonesome manager of Loky Manambato Protected Area, and his two friends, the Aye-Aye trackers, had already spotted the first group of Golden-crowned sifakas or Tattersall’s sifaka (Propithecus tattersalli) up in the branches of a grove of trees. We followed them in a hurry through high dried out grass, always looking up, following the graceful white lemurs with our eyes. That´s why we didn´t notice the family digging holes in a dried-out riverbed and searching the excavated material in a big pan for gold. And only a few metres above their heads, the Golden-crowned Sifakas were nibbling on the sweet yellow blossoms of a local tree.

Marojejy Sept24 A good 60 km southwest of Sambava lies Marojejy National Park in the eponymous Massif de Marojejy, a mountain range with its highest point at 2.132 m altitude. Those mountains are covered by dense rainforest as well as montane rainforest and cloud forest on the higher levels, and the forest is one of the top hotspots of biodiversity left on our ravaged planet. The national park protects more than 55.000 ha of it and has been gazetted in 1998 after already being a protected area since 1952. In 2007, it has been declared world heritage site by UNESCO as a part of the Antsinanana rainforests. Continue… Bewerten:Share this:TwitterFacebookPinterestGefällt mir:Gefällt mir Wird geladen …
