Gorongosa National Park, Mozambique

Africa'a Lost Eden (trailer)  National Geographic Channel Film

"Africa' s Lost Eden," was considered one the best films of 2010 by the International Committee of Tourism Film Festivals.  It was known as “the place where Noah left his Ark:” 4,000 square kilometers of lush floodplains in central Mozambique, packed with wild animals. But 15 years of civil war took a heavy toll—many species were almost completely wiped out for meat. As documented in a new National Geographic Channel film, conservationists today are battling to restore the park to its former glory, and save it from present-day threats that could destroy it forever. One of the largest contributors, Gregory C. Carr,  has pledged $40 million to rebuild the park so it can serve as a source of tourist income for the local population.

It was said to be "the place where Noah left his Ark." Lush floodplains in central Mozambique packed with wild animals and more than 500 species of birds.
The legendary Gorongosa National Park was filmed by National Geographic to produce an amazing documentary "Africa's Lost Eden" to tell the story of the extraordinary efforts of conservationists fighting to restore the park and replenish the animal populations. This is a video clip with some of the footage of that documentary.
