Makossa, the rhythm that put Cameroon on the global music map. Manu Dibango's "Soul Makossa" made the world dance, but every Cameroonian knows makossa started in the clubs of Douala long before the world found out. The bass line, the brass, the swing. When makossa plays, your shoulders move before your brain decides.
You encounter the vibrant Guam rail, Micronesian kingfisher, and flying lemurs that define this Pacific island's unique ecosystem. You commonly see Filipinos and native Chamorros keeping fighting cocks, parrots, and tropical fish as beloved household companions. ACADA celebrates the world's pets, and helps assure better care.
