]]>Head to the tropical forests of northern Madagascar and you will likely find panther chameleons. These small lizards, which don’t get any larger than about eight inches in length, are known for their vibrant colors and their extremely long tongues.
Made popular by the movie Madagascar, everyone knows that lemurs are one of the most characteristic animals on the island. Lemurs can only be found in the wild on the island of Madagascar, and amazingly, there are over 100 species that exist, including the famous sifaka.
Cat lovers are likely to fall in love with the fossa during their visits to Madagascar thanks to their close resemblance to the common pet. Lurking throughout the island in forested areas, these carnivorous mammals can often be seen jumping from tree to tree!

]]>If you find yourself wanting to travel to Madagascar to catch a glimpse of these furtive beauties, there’s one place you absolutely must go: Andasibe-Mantadia National Park.
A 155-square-kilometer protected area located on the eastern interior side of the island, this park is known as one of the top places in the world to see lemurs in their natural habitat. This primary growth forest hosts all kinds of species, from terrestrial crabs to tree crabs.
The crown jewel and the main draw of the park, however, are the eleven species of lemurs that can be found inhabiting the park.
The biggest lemur in Madagascar, the indri, is one of the biggest attractions at this park. A critically endangered species, the Andasibe-Mantadia National Park is one of the most important protected areas that help maintain the survival of lemurs.
Be sure to visit this beautiful jungle area and its furry friends if you find yourself traveling in Madagascar!

]]>The Tsingy de Bemaraha National Park aka the Stone forest is a national park located in northwest Madagascar. It is a needle-like, tall, thin rock formations are made from limestone which has been eroded by tropical rain. This unique forest is home to a number of native animal species.
The enormous Baobab trees, which are lining a dirt road but a national road between the Morondava and the Belon’i Tsiribihina cities, form the world famous Avenue of the Baobabs. The Avenue is only around 260 meters long, and due to deforestation, there are no more than 25 trees standing.
Madagascar is well known for vanilla trees and it is the number one world exporter. Because of its isolation, some fauna and flora can’t be found anywhere else, but only on this island. For example, there are 70 different species of Lemurs and see-through chameleons that live nowhere else on Earth. There are Nature Preserves in Madagascar you would want to see: Black Lemur – Lokobe NR – Nosy Be, Berenty, Andasibe-Mantadia, Isalo National Park, Kirindy etc.
Malagasy people are warm, curious and welcoming people, and interacting with them and getting to know their culture and lifestyle gives you the complete and definitely unique picture of the Madagascar.
