Madagascar: A World Apart
- 1998 ----- color ----- 55 min ----- vhs
- (From The Living Edens Series) Madagascar is a world onto itself, where evolution has taken the familiar and rendered the bizarre. Split off from Africa since the age of the dinosaurs, Madagascar's isolation gave rise to countless exotic animals and plants that exist nowhere else on earth. Presents an extraordinary cast of characters, including chameleons of every color and size, a panther-like carnivore called a fossa, and the charismatic lemurs for which the island is famous. From lush tropical rain forests tot he sun-scorched spiny desert, the natural wonders of this island paradise are shown. (Narrated by Maya Angelou) (Closed-Captioned)
- Topics: (Anthropology: Biological, Biology, Geography, Primates, Zoology)
