Part 3/9:
As the journey progresses, the narrator travels south across the island’s plateau, where the roads facilitate movement and cattle herding. The geography of Madagascar presents a stark contrast: the eastern region, nourished by the Indian Ocean, is lush and verdant, while the west is arid and in parts resembles a desert.
The southern terrain introduces the warty chameleon, perfectly adapted to its spiky environment, exhibiting greenish hues that allow it to blend in seamlessly with its surroundings. Further into the journey, the captivating giant Parson's chameleon captures attention for its remarkable size and evolutionary adaptations, such as its prehensile tail and superior vision.
