Summary, etc. |
No area on earth has so many national parks and game reserves as Eastern Africa, nor does any other region of similar size encompass such a wide variety of habitats and wildlife. But, with a rapid increase in the size of human populations and the widespread devastation wreaked by poachers, the balance of nature in east Africa is threatened. The urgency is felt the world over, perhaps accounting for the record thousands of visitors who embarked on east African wildlife safaris this past decade. But those travelers faced a paucity of literature to describe the safari experience. Now Spectrum Guide To African Wildlife Safaris offers the one, complete suitcase-sized guide to safaris, detailing the full range of wildlife to be seen, and including practical information on conservation, medicine and wildlife photography. |
