<description><![CDATA[While you will undoubtedly see many different species of animal during a Madagascar wildlife holiday, there is one variety of animals that will be of great interest to a select group of travellers: the island's indigenous reptiles. While Madagascar's photogenic mammals are well-known and beloved, the reptiles are equally fascinating and considered just as compelling by some.

<description><![CDATA[One of the strongest selling points of a Madagascar wildlife holiday is the opportunity to spot creatures that don't live anywhere else in the world. The island's isolation has made it a splendid sanctuary for a number of species that evolved along their own path. Often these creatures are shining examples of ingenious evolution, where nature used different ways of solving problems, sometimes filling niches with unlikely candidates. One of the finest examples of this is found in the north of the island, where a primate has developed to fulfil a role normally played by a bird in other parts of the world.]]></description>

These are perhaps the very reasons it is slowly finding its way in to popular culture. In fact, these days you'd probably hear the same dishes name dropped in a cooking show the way you would in the kitchens of the farmhouses and villas in Tuscany!]]></description>
