SPEAKER: Ron Long, SFU
ABSTRACT: This talk will include points of natural and human history interest throughout Namibia, including the highest sand dunes in the world and the ghost town of Kolman's Kop but will concentrate on the incredible bird and animal diversity of Etosha and Chobe National Parks. These are among the best game viewing parks in Africa and a visit there is full of surprises.
The talk is more than a showing of beautiful photographs. The biological information provided gives a new perspective even to those who have previously visited these areas.
