The Story of Gorongosa | Explorers in the Field

From the Education Resource Library! Paola Bouley is a conservation ecologist devoted to saving the top predators in Gorongosa National Park in Mozambique. Paola shares the innovative strategies that are helping to turn around a decimated lion population. Through the efforts of many, Gorongosa has become a model for what can happen when people put their hearts and minds together to restore balance to a severely damaged ecosystem.
