Savannah & Crater – East Africa's Garden of Eden

Speaker: Dr. Sudha Mahalingam, traveller and travel writer ever in quest of the extraordinary and the exceptional, will deliver an illustrated lecture on Serengeti and Ngorongoro based on her recent visit

 

Chair: Shri Ranjit Lal

 

The seemingly endless plains of Serengeti rimmed by 360 degree horizons and the adjoining Ngorongoro, a collapsed crater in Africa's Rift valley are a veritable Garden of Eden with their profusion of uniquely African wildlife. Serengeti attracts millions of wildebeest, gazelles and zebra and a multitude of other animals - both predator and potential prey - which wander here to give birth and raise their young; Ngorongoro offers a sheltered valley, perhaps a laboratory for wildlife
