Captivating collection of the magical world of Madagascar taken by an animal photographer
Madagascar is a fascinating island of wonderful flora and fauna lying on the east coast of Southern Africa in the western Indian Ocean. As a result of the island's long isolation from neighboring continents, Madagascar is home to an abundance of rare plants and animals found nowhere else on Earth and 615 new species were found on this island of miracles even after year 2000. On the other hand, we must be aware of the fact that Madagascar faces the risk of extinction in species due to human activities just like any other areas with endangered species.
With unique sense of elegance, Tsuneo Yamaoto successfully took the photos of rare animals and nature differing greatly from that of nearby Africa and rest of the world. This is a captivating collection that will take you to the magical world of Madagascar.
