Afrika ist ein vielfältiger Kontinent mit kraftvollen Landschaften: vom tropischen Regenwald, den Feuchtgebieten des Okavango-Deltas, über die Serengeti und die einzigartige Natur Madagaskars bis zur Namib. Frans Lanting reist seit Jahrzehnten im Auftrag des National Geographic Magazine über diesen Kontinent und dokumentiert beeindruckende Landschaften und ihre Tierwelt, deren Veränderungen und ihre Bedrohung.
