From the Back Cover
Rising 600ft from the dry savannahs of northern Madagascar, the Ankarana Massif hides its zoological riches behind a fortress of unclimable cliffs, vicious limestone pinnacles and ferocious thorny scrub. Entering the Lost World through 60 miles of caves and along deep forested gorges, Jane Wilson found not dinosaurs but other gentler ecological curiosities: a wealth of lemurs, strange endemic birds, chamaeleons, blind fish and much more. Ankarana has its guardians too, 20-foot long crocodiles live in the subterranean rivers and six-inch hairy spiders, lethal scorpions and huge venomous centipedes patrol the sunken forests.
Interspersed with descriptions of the entertaining lemurs come accounts of the hardships, disappointments, dangers and excitements of exploring the Crocodile Caves and the isolated forests, providing a glimpse of the realities of the ecological fieldwork, conservation dilemmas, the personalities of the team, the Antankarana locals and their strange rituals.
