In September 2003, at the Durban World Parks Congress, Marc Ravalomanana made an impression with his ‘Durban Vision’ aiming by 2008 to increase by three times – from 1.7 to 6 million hectares – the amount of land under protected area status in Madagascar, a country with world heritage biodiversity. In November of the following year, the president launched his vision for the country – ‘Madagascar, naturellement’ – acknowledging Madagascar's endangered biodiversity, where some 478 unique genera of plants and vertebrates, such as lemurs (the most endangered primate species), are part of a national, sustainable economic growth strategy. When Ravalomanana was deposed in 2009, lemurs started appearing once again on restaurant tables, according to Conservation International (CI).
