In the heart of Madagascar, La Mananara shelters one of the country's last intact stretches of highland rainforest. Here, lemurs call through the canopy and rare birds flash between trees. Yet beyond the protected borders, much of the forest has already been cleared for subsistence agriculture. The park is a refuge in a country where the balance between survival and conservation plays out daily.
