In
southern Africa the three principal forests types are temperate,
subtropical and montane.
The
best known temperate forest lies in the garden route area
of South Africa.
Coastal forests with their wondeful trees;
milkwoods, white-stinkwoods and erythrinas and wild figs are
slightly different in character from the inland forests.
Forest
birdlife is abundant and proves a real challenge. Some forests
provide a habitat for shy and ellusive
mammals.
