Banyan Tree Sinkhole, Tsimanampetsotsa National Park, Madagascar
View Original Description
Continuing past the baobabs, the trail leads to the Banyan Tree site. This is a classic vertical sink hole, about 25 m in circumference resulting from the collapse of a cave. About 10 to 12 m below the rim of the sink hole is a pool and growing at the edge of the sinkhole, with roots reaching down into the water is a large banyan fig tree. Fossils have also been found here, showing a cross-section of the known extinct fauna found in the region
