UNESCO WHS - Atsinanana - Andohahela National Park Postcard
UNESCO WHS Serie - Title: Rainforests of the Atsinanana Subtitle: Parc National d’Andohahela - Andohahela National Park Description: The Rainforests of the Atsinanana comprise 6 national parks. These relict forests are critically important for maintaining ongoing ecological processes necessary for the survival of Madagascar’s unique biodiversity. Madagascar’s plant and animal life evolved in isolation since more than 60 million years. Having completed its separation from all other land masses more than 60 million years ago, Madagascar’s plant and animal life evolved in isolation. Many species are threatened especially primates and lemurs. The Andohahela National Park covers 760 km2 of the Anosy mountain range. The variety of habitats within Andohahela is mirrored in the richness of species that are found there, and the park is the richest place in Madagascar for lemurs.
