A journey into the heart of the world's most exceptional rainforest, where a remarkable diversity of animals and plants emblematic of Madagascar thrive, such as lemurs, chameleons and orchids. These very species now rank among the most endangered on the planet, as 90% of the forest cover that once blanketed the island has disappeared—half of it within the last 50 years. A concerted effort has recently been launched to combat deforestation and restore forest corridors between the newly established protected areas.
