Safari Südafrika Karge Wüsten, weite Savannen, schroffe Gebirge und üppige Tropenwälder – die facetten reichen Landschaftsräume Südafrikas sind überwältigend schön. Und die legendären »Big Five« bei einem Game Drive durch eines der unzähligen Wildreservate aus nur wenigen Metern Entfernung zu beobachten, ist eine unbe schreibliche Erfahrung. In prächtigen Fotografien entführt das Buch in Südafrikas Schutzgebiete mit ihrer Fülle an Tieren und Pflanzen und macht Lust darauf, dieses spannende Land auf einer Safari zu entdecken. € (D) 39,95 / € (A) 41,10 ISBN 978-3-95504-521-0 2 Südafrikanische Seebären lassen sich von den Wellen des Atlantiks treiben. Im Namaqualand- Natio nalpark trifft man häufig Kolonien dieser Robbenart an. 3 4 Wenn die Sonne im Golden Gate Highlands National Park langsam untergeht, lassen ihre letzten Strahlen den Mushroom Rock in kräftigem Orange erglühen. 5 6 Dieses Impala hat in der Savanne des Pilanesberg-Nationalparks Futter gefunden. Die Tiere ernäh- ren sich hauptsächlich von ein- und zweikeimblättrigen Pflanzen und Gräsern. 7 ZU DIESEM BUCH »Ich glaube fest daran, dass Südafrika der schönste Ort auf Erden ist. Natürlich bin ich voreingenommen. Aber wenn man die Na- turschönheiten von Südafrika mit der Gast- freundschaft und Kulturvielfalt unserer Ein- 8 wohner verbindet und zudem in Betracht Nelson Mandela für die »Regenbogennati- außergewöhnlichen Tier- und Pflanzenwelt, zieht, dass das Land ein Paradies für unsere on« ist nicht übertrieben. Dieses Buch stellt die in aus gewiesenen, teils privaten Natur- Tierwelt ist, dann bin ich überzeugt, dass so- zunächst die verschiedenen Naturräume und und Wildparks geschützt wird. Schließlich gar der gewissenhafteste Kritiker mit mir Völker Südafrikas vor. Der Hauptteil widmet wird eine Bandbreite an Safari-Unterkünften übereinstimmen würde.« Dieses Lob von sich der Vielfalt der Landschaften und der vorgestellt. 9 INHALT ZU DIESEM BUCH 8 NATURLANDSCHAFTEN, Fynbos-Pflanzengesellschaften 58 NATIONALPARKS UND West Coast National Park 60 NATURRESERVATE 30 Kaphalbinsel 62 SÜDAFRIKA IM ÜBERBLICK 14 Cape Floral Region 64 Übersichtskarte 16 CAPELANDS 32 Nektarvögel 66 Naturräume Richtersveld 34 Tafelberg 68 Capelands 18 |Ai-|Ais Richtersveld Transfrontier Park 36 Kirstenbosch National Botanical Garden 70 Cape Fold Belt 20 Flora im |Ai-|Ais Richtersveld Königsprotea 71 Südafrika-Plateaus (Veld) 22 Transfrontier Park 40 Table Mountain National Park 72 Kalahari-Becken 24 Namaqualand 42 Twelve Apostles 74 Geschichte 26 Blütenparadies Namaqualand 44 Hout Bay 76 Völker und Stämme 27 Sukkulenten-Karoo 46 Tokai Forest 78 Buren 29 Lithopse: »Lebende Steine« 47 Silvermine 80 Cape West Coast UNESCO- Cape of Good Hope 82 Biosphärenreservat 48 Cape Point 84 Goegap Nature Reserve 50 Boulders Beach und Betty’s Bay 86 Namaqua National Park 52 Brillenpinguine 87 Western Cape 54 False Bay 88 Lamberts Bay 56 Kogelberg UNESCO-Biosphärenreservat 90 10 Die kräftigen Farben Afrikas leuchten, während sich der Himmel in dunkle Wolken hüllt.

  • 1 Annual Portfolio Overview Maputaland-Pondoland-Albany
    Annual Portfolio Overview Maputaland‐Pondoland‐Albany Biodiversity Hotspot October 2012 I. Introduction Stretching along roughly 800 miles of the Indian Ocean coast and 200 miles inland to the Great Escarpment, from Port Elizabeth in South Africa’s Eastern Cape Province, north through KwaZulu‐Natal, further covering much of Swaziland and southern Mozambique, the Maputaland‐Pondoland‐Albany Hotspot is characterized by an endemic vegetation type called subtropical thicket. Subtropical thicket – a condensed forest of thorny trees, shrubs, and vines – is an ecosystem driven by elephants, black rhino, and Cape buffalo that trample down paths and disperse seeds through their digestive tracks. The region is named for its three main centers of endemism: Maputaland in the north, typified by lush riverine and estuary habitats, diverse savannah, foothill grasslands, and dune forests; Pondoland in the middle, typified by a matrix of forests, grasslands, and rushing river valleys; and Albany in the south, typified by thickets and ecotones that shade into the fynbos of the Cape Floristic and the plants of the Succulent and Nama Karoo habitats. There are 1,900 endemic plant species in the hotspot, of which 534 are either Vulnerable, Endangered, or Critically Endangered per the IUCN Red List. While vertebrate diversity and endemism are lower than that of plants, they are still remarkable. Furthermore, the sub‐ equatorial waters are centers of diversity for sharks, rays, skates, and coastal fish. In addition to the endemic species, the region is also home to the many charismatic species – lions, elephants, hippos – that characterize the classic African safari tourism experience. The political and cultural landscapes are as varied as the biological diversity.

Attention is drawn to section 47(1) of the Act which require a clearance of at least 2 500 FT above the highest point in a Special Nature Reserve, National Park or World Heritage Site. Pilots are cautioned that these altitudes might require aircraft to enter controlled airspace and therefore appropriate ATC clearances are to be obtained. Non-compliance to the Act is considered an offence (See Section 89 of the Act). Charts depicting the relevant National Parks and World Heritage Sites, and tables containing the Minimum Flight Altitudes, are provided to assist pilots with the identification, minimum heights to be flown or the avoidance of these areas in toto.

The Camdeboo National Park (Camdeboo NP) was proclaimed on the 29th of October 2005, having formerly existed as the Karoo Nature Reserve since 1976. Apart from its scenic beauty, the geographical context of Camdeboo NP, practically surrounding the town of Graaff-Reinet, is perhaps its most outstanding feature. This relationship between a protected area with already popular tourist attractions, and a growing population on its borders, places Camdeboo NP in a unique position in the network of protected areas in the Eastern Cape. Camdeboo NP thus has the potential to significantly contribute to the socio-economic upliftment of a large local community. Camdeboo NP has a semi-arid climate, and forms part of the Great Escarpment.
