With an area of 226,660 square miles (597,000 km2), Madagascar " S% |! M/ B! \' E. [
is the fourth-largest island in the world. The western, most
# T+ L* i6 C- narid part contains the strange mineral forest of Tsingy of
) {5 H( b I+ G3 m+ N$ xBemeraha. This geological formation, called a karst, is the ; G3 C& R- S: J# K
result of erosion, as acid rains have gradually dissolved the
; w6 A# a" p- d+ L7 r: Z0 o0 qstone of the chalky plateau and carved out sharp ridges that % m, X, s W5 _7 n) `
rise to heights of 65 to 95 feet (20 to 30 m). Human ! Q& I8 ~4 E5 h6 @& g; b2 N
penetration of the area has been difficult, which explains its & F* @* A; Q4 _3 p" a
name, ’tsingy’, which is Malagasy for ’walking on tiptoe.’ The
6 J. t0 Z3 [) o% W+ Rsite was declared a nature reserve in 1927 and a world * V7 Z# G8 L, O; N5 M
heritage site by UNESCO in 1990. Madagascar separated from the
