Madagascar: kingdom of the chameleon ; this documentary that discovers us the secrets of the most amazing reptile of the world.

On
an island in the Indian Ocean, off the coast of Africa, live the strangest
and most curious reptiles on the face of the Earth. A place where they are respected like Gods and feared like the devil. Enigmatic and mysterious, these miniature dinosaurs surprise us with their unimagined shapes and sizes, the consequence of millions of years of evolution. Madagascar is without doubt a sanctuary on earth for these reptiles.

Madagascar is an island continent, the fourth biggest in the world: almost as big as the Iberian Peninsula. Separated from Africa by 400 kilometres of sea by the Mozambique Channel and isolated for millions of years, it was a perfect evolutionary laboratory. |
