Think Like A Scientist: Gorongosa

In the 1960's Gorongosa National Park was one the best national parks in all of Africa. It's slogan was, 'Where Noah Left the Arch.' But, 30 years of war in Mozambique (first a war with Portugal for independence and the a 15-year civil war) devastated the park. Gorongosa was at the epicenter of the conflict and 95% of it's wildlife were killed to feed the soldiers or poached for ivory to purchase more weapons. The war is over and a group of scientists, conservationists and Mozambicans are bringing back the park. (Colorado Environmental Film Festival)
