Describe the environment in madagascar

Madagascar has suffered severe environmental degradation but still retains some of the most biodiversity on the planet. 


some of the environmental issues in madagascar:
Madagascar is among the world's poorest countries. As such, people's day-to-day survival is dependent upon natural resource use. Most Malagasy never have an option to become doctors, sports stars, factory workers, or secretaries; they must live off the land that surrounds them, making use of whatever resources they can find. Their poverty costs the country and the world through the loss of the island's endemic biodiversity.
