Journey through dramatic landscapes, from the pack ice of the Arctic to the rainforests of Brazil, to experience fifty of the planet's most exciting wildlife spectacles. Global Safari is a photographic tour of the world's favourite wildlife-viewing destinations, seen through the eyes of the leading nature photographers, accompanied by James Parry's vibrant and evocative accounts of each place and the animals you will find there.
Travelling from continent to continent, you will see the astounding beauty and diversity of the natural world, from the migration of the Wildebeest in the Serengeti, and the autumnal gathering of Polar Bears on the edge of Canada's Hudson Bay to the endangered bands of Ugandan Mountain Gorillas. Less familiar but equally astounding experiences include the winter gathering of over 400 million Monarch butterflies in the highlands of central Mexico, and the dense colonies of seabirds, penguins and seals on remote South Georgia.
Many of the animals and habitats featured are under threat from global warming and over-population by humans, and the ecological rights and wrongs of travelling to these places are addressed. With the boom in eco-tourism, more people than ever are choosing ethical ways of viewing wildlife, but if you can't afford - or don't want - to jump on a plane, Global Safari can take you to all those places and show you everything you want to see.
