Madagascar blog Day 1- After 30 hours of traveling and no sleep it’s safe to say I’m tired and delirious. Yet, because I’m so tired it almost makes me appreciate the beauty of Antananarivo more. I ate scallops with a side of noodles.  Day 2- Today we went to the university in Madagascar and learned about the evolution and extinction of endemic animals in madagascar. I thought it was most interesting to learn about the giant lemurs who once roamed as recent as 400 years ago. They could potentially grow to the size of a large make gorilla. For our reading, we read about potential causes for extinction and while it seems likely human impact was the cause, evidence does suggest it’s unlikely and it happened because of synergy.
