The Enchanted Island Madagascar: The Living Edens

Documentary

Travel to the mysterious island that time forgot -- the island of Madagascar. Nestled in the tranquil waters of the Indian Ocean off the coast of Africa, Madagascar is an enchanting paradise where for eons nature has been left undisturbed. As you explore this pristine refuge, you'll discover a variety of dazzling plants and animals unique to Madagascar, because it evolved in isolation from the rest of the world. You'll soar over forested mountains, expansive plateaus and lush green rain-forests, encountering delightful leaping lemurs, colorful chameleons, exotic lizards, graceful ibis and breathtakingly beautiful butterflies -- did you know that there are over 3,200 species of butterflies on the island of Madagascar and, of those, over 2,900 can be seen only here? Witness close-up this primeval world's deepest secrets and closely guarded marvels and feel the power of this impressive island as never before.
