During the Mega-transect expedition, led by Wildlife Conservation Society scientist, J. Michael Fay, the team crossed Central Africa in search of the last remaining pristine blocks of forest. On their journey, members found a remarkable site in the heart of Gabon. It is a forest called Langoué, which harbors a wealth of wildlife and extraordinary waterfalls. Langoué's forest also contains a "bai", a saline in a large natural clearing, unique to Gabon. This "bai" is a gathering site for a number of large mammals, such as elephants, gorillas, sitatungas and buffalos which come feed on the rich minerals of the saline. The beautiful images of Langoué's wildlife convey the importance of this site for conservation in the world. The video also alerts us to the urgent need to ensure long lasting protection of this Central African natural paradise, before it disappears under the pressure of uncontrolled development.
