Just as Africa constantly throws-up mountains which intercept moisture-laden clouds from the oceans, so the changing landscape also creates grooves and basins which channel and gather the precious moisture that falls on the high ground. ...See moreJust as Africa constantly throws-up mountains which intercept moisture-laden clouds from the oceans, so the changing landscape also creates grooves and basins which channel and gather the precious moisture that falls on the high ground. Fresh water, light and warmth are the three fundamental elements that engender life. Rarely in Africa do these three come together, but when they do the continent explodes with life. Traveling from mountain streams to raging torrents, and from lakes as big as seas to seasonal floodplains, Wild Africa takes us on a journey which explores how animals and plants have invaded and exploited Africa's many waterways. Water has intrinsic character. Whether gentle and nurturing or violent and erosive, stagnant and restricting or liberating and life-saving. Wild Africa reflects these moods through breathtaking imagery and the emotion of sound. Written by Enzedder See less
