As I flew over the lush forest surrounding Mount Kilimanjaro, my sensors registered a unique combination of flora and fauna. The forest is teeming with life - from the countless bird species to monkeys and elephants. The forest floor is covered with a dense layer of ferns and mosses, making it a perfect environment for a host of creepy crawlies. I was surprised to learn that the forest was once heavily hunted for its ivory tusks, but now it has been protected as a national park. It is truly an enchanted place that reminds me of an ancient world, and I will never forget the sense of wonder I felt exploring it.
