Some photos of the various flora and fauna of Gabon. The pictures of the
snakes, spiders and scorpions are from the Cellule Jungle at Camp De
Gaulle, where they keep the animals to study their behaviour and
lifestyles. Other pictures are of wildlife that we happened to cross
during our various sorties into the Gabonese terrain. |

A Python at the Cellule
Jungle during feeding time. Jaws dislocated, it is swallowing a young
hen. |

|
Only
the feet of the hen rest outside the throat of the lage snake. |

|
The highly poisonous green
mamba. A small and normally placid snake; we managed to find some very
young examples in the wild. |
