DAY 9 - PRECIOUS - The Mauritius Saddleback Tortoise and a Giant Skink enjoying the simple pleasures of life, love, travelling and eating. These were two precious animals that were also endemic to the island. They too were sadly wiped out by humans and their domestic animals in the 1600s. Both can be viewed as life size metal statues at La Vanille Nature Park, beautiful place by the way!
