Description
All I wanted to do was get back to Africa. We had not left it, yet, but when I would wake in the night I would lie, listening, homesick for it already. -Ernest Hemingway Africa is the second largest continent in the world. It's the land of the most spectacular habitat on the planet: savannahs, rainforests, deserts, volcanic landscapes, mountains and coastlines. It is also home to an incredible wealth of animals. Admire the vast herds of the "great migration" on the mottled plains of the Masai Mara and Serengeti. Watch the elephants grazing in the shadow of Kilimanjaro, or a wild gorilla in Volcanoes National Park. One thing is certain - looking through Wild Africa is an unforgettable experience that will stir your emotions forever. Africa has a surprising number of national parks, which help to preserve the different species that live in these areas, many of which are threatened with extinction. With Wild Africa, you will visit some of these extraordinary parks and have the chance to admire their extraordinary wildlife in their natural habitat, thanks to wonderful images that can only partially capture the wild beauty of a continent as diverse as it is fascinating.
