Wildlife of Mantadia National Park
The only way to explore Mantadia is on foot. Trails lead through the dense forest, over tree trunks and up and down hills — the land is rarely flat. Walking along you see tiny frogs leaping out of the path and chameleons on the ends of dripping branches. At dusk, keep your eyes out for the slow moving Madagascar tree boa.
There are numerous lemur species in Mantadia and highlights include the black and white ruffed lemur, indri and the striking diademed sifaka.
