Large cows known as zebus pull a cart past iconic Grandidier’s baobab trees in rural Madagascar, where they are the most common form of transportation. Madagascar’s climate also suits the baobab tree, which stores water in order to survive the long, dry season that dominates the year. This is one of my favorite images from Art Wolfe’s Travels to the Edge.
