Produktbeschreibung
Rwanda has a majesty you simply cannot find in many places: wide-open savanna, the symphonic sounds and sights of the rainforest, the mists that engulf the volcanoes. At a moment when Rwanda is fast becoming a premier destination for wildlife tourism, this book reveals why with its photographic survey of Rwanda's four national parks. It highlights the diverse wildlife that inhabits each park: Akagera National Park is a savanna park, home to the traditional safari "Big Five" (elephant, lion, cape buffalo, leopard, and rhinoceros) and more; Nyungwe National Park is an intact mountain rain forest with over a dozen species of primates; Gishwati-Mukura National Park is regenerating after being nearly destroyed by habitat loss, and has several primate species including chimpanzees; and Volcanoes National Park, in the Virungas, is the home of the iconic mountain gorilla. This book provides a preview and orientation to Rwanda's national parks, and can serve as a keepsake for travelers after they visit. "Remarkable Rwanda" is not just a slogan. The photography and text are both the work of Dr. Michael J. Renner, scientist and photographer, who has worked in Rwanda for many years. The photos only begin to capture the beauty and grandeur of these animals in their natural habitat.
