4 hectares.

San Francisco Zoo
The San Francisco Zoos goals are to preserve endangered species
and habitats, and to educate the public on these important issues.
The San Francisco Zoo is becoming a center for conservation and
education, benefiting animals, habitats, and people in the Bay
Area and around the world.

Zoo Zürich
The aim of the Zoo Zürich in creating the "Masoala Rainforest"
is to reproduce the natural relationships between the tropical
plant and animal communities under artificial conditions and make
these accessible to visitors. With this snapshot of the Masoala
Rainforest the Zoo Zürich also goals to direct a link to
its ongoing nature protection projects on the real Masoala Rainforest
on Madagascar.

Marojejy National Park
Rugged and untamed, Marojejy is one of the few places in the world where you can hike from the dense, vine-shrouded jungle to the high mountain tundra in a relatively short distance. Even if you are not a seasoned biologist, you can't help but note the extreme diversity of life forms and the changes in plant communities you encounter as you climb the mountain. Marojejy will appeal to all who value nature, the mountains, and wild places.

Anjanaharibe-Sud Special Reserve
Little known and infrequently visited, the Anjanaharibe-Sud Special Reserve is one of Madagascar's secret jewels. Nestled deep in the remote and rugged mountains of northeastern Madagascar, Anjanaharibe-Sud contains some of the last intact stands of virgin mid- and high-elevation rainforest left in the entire country. It is a place of outstanding beauty and solitude, a place that offers a glimpse into the primeval past.
