Andros Island, Bahamas
Andros provides an outstanding environmental setting for a weeklong (or longer) program. Studies such as marine biology, archeology, oceanography, botany, ornithology, ecology, tropical studies, etc. can be covered in a broad overview or broken into individual topics.
The Great Barrier Reef is one of the richest, most complex and diverse ecosystems in the world. The Great Barrier Reef Marine Park begins at the tip of Cape York in Queensland and extends south almost to Bundaberg. The area is larger than Victoria and Tasmania combined and stretches more than 2300km along the north-east coast of Australia. The Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Authority (GBRMPA) is the Australian Government agency responsible for management of the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park (Marine Park). Among other things, the GBRMPA works towards the Marine Park's long-term protection and ecological sustainability, as well as understanding and enjoyment for all Australians and the international community, through the care and development of the Marine Park.

Kabalega Falls, also known as Murchison Falls, waterfall in Uganda, in east central Africa, on the Nile River. At the falls the waters of the Victoria Nile are forced through a narrow gap in the rock about 6 m (about 20 ft) wide. The river drops 122 m (400 ft) in three separate cascades and flows westward into Lake Albert.
The snow leopard, known for its beautiful, thick fur, has a white, yellowish or soft gray coat with ringed spots of black on brown. The markings help camouflage it from prey. With their thick coats, heavy fur-lined tails and paws covered with fur, snow leopards are perfectly adapted to the cold and dry habitats in which they live.
