Followed by the above "Madagascar Expedition at the End of 2016 (5) Ranumafana".
Leaving the La Numafana Rainforest, our group headed to the Anja Private Reserve. It was a long road, and we came to a small town for lunch halfway through. A hotel opened by an old overseas Chinese is said to have come to Madagascar to survive during the Republic of China. Everywhere is Chinese characters and auspicious motifs. But the most conspicuous is a small pavilion, facing the direction of China, with a large book on it. Seeing this not only ran to tears.
The hotel is large and there are other mixed shops around. See a small shop specializing in fossil ore. The only thing that can be seen inside are two Malagasy nodule ammonites.
First time I saw the ammonites of the Falklands. Bite your teeth and buy it, the price is so expensive. Two pieces of several hundred yuan.
Ammonite is filled with purple calcite crystals.
There was also a pile of tattered ammonites that could not be seen.
After eating, we continued on our way.
Arrive at Anjia in the late afternoon and arrange check-in first
The oil painting in the house is very distinctive, and it is actually painted with red moth wax cicadas

There is also a wetland pond nearby
After dinner, night falls. We heard a frog barking near the house, and our sharp-eyed teammates found it
Heterixalus luteostriatus, the front photo is cute and cute
At night, I found that there were many snakes here. When it got dark, there were Horse Island snakes in the house.
Everyone set out to explore the Anjia Reserve at night, and all along the way were all this kind of Horse Island swimming snakes, and it was estimated that hundreds of them were seen along the way. Friends with snake phobia are expected to collapse. However, this snake is non-venomous and harmless, and it is quite gentle.
The first step armor seen on the road is the fart step armor
See beautiful geckos
The road is full of Horse Island snakes, and suddenly I see another kind of snake, with a shiny skin and a rainbow color
See a cute juvenile chameleon, the size of a thumb, small and quite fierce.
See a third snake, the famous Falkland python
I was filming a close-up of the python, and I saw that the grass had a ball of thorns. It turned out to be the Horse Island Hedgehog
After fiddling with it for half a day, I finally unfolded my body to take a side photo of me. Ears like Mickey Mouse.
Seeing a bug hunting, the bug hunting experts in the team were excited
At night, chameleons are easier to find, and various imitation protective colors under the flashlight immediately appear in their original form. Pygmy chameleon
I actually found a bitten desert rhinoceros turtle with a missing arm and a broken leg, and it was still tenaciously alive.
Horse Island frog
There are scorpions inside the decaying wood
Then I saw a huge wingless bug.
Good luck came, along the way found a lot of green foot armor, there are four kinds.
See a red turtle with exaggerated teeth
Shiny dung beetles chase monkey dung around.
Saw a small one
A species of the Falklands similar to the Great Knife Mantis
Explore at night until one or two o'clock before going back to the house to sleep.
When we got up the next day, the guide urged us to conduct the day's scientific expedition. Several chameleons were seen on the road
There are also a lot of lizards basking in the sun
Overlooking
The Anjia Reserve is located high in a pure rocky area with less soil, and many succulents grow here. Succulent like coral
This cut-off plant has white milk
Seeing flocks of moth wax cicadas, may still be young adults of red moth wax cicadas, they have not yet turned red
See another bee-like golden turtle
This white-striped swimming snake is seen a lot
Deep into the woods, lemurs begin to multiply. Nor is it afraid of people
Crouch on a branch
I took a picture with a lemur, wanted to take a good angle, and finally photographed this chrysanthemum facing me most clearly
Cute little birds
In the morning, I turned around the small Anjia Conservation Area, and the harvest was not small. Leaving the Anja Sanctuary, pass by a special restaurant on the way for a full meal, and continue on the way to a friend's house in Turial.
The Malagasy expedition is still ongoing and will be launched as soon as possible in the near future.
