| Summary |
Boasting an extraordinary variety of pristine habitats, Gabon may be the last best hope for many of Africa's native species. But Gabon is an embattled paradise, surrounded by war-torn nations and rampant exploitation of natural resources. Fortunately, a dedicated group is determined to preserve Gabon's natural riches, with an unprecedented 11,000 square mile network of national parks unlike anything Africa has ever seen. |
