These species play a vital role in maintaining the health and balance of the ocean ecosystem, as well as providing economic and social benefits to the coastal communities that depend on them for food, income, and tourism.

Bloodfinger - The Succulent Karoo, Namibia
👏👏👏
Lost me at "save the feral horses" after a lecture on how one plant disappearing will have a chain effect and wipe out multiple others... BUT protect the FERAL horses. Who are likely EATING the rare plants.
Beautiful
I miss this in my life,my culture diversity of almighty kavango
Nice 👍
Well done NNF 🎉. This is inspiring!

Beautifully done.
Beautiful!
A most interesting and informative video. Thank you.
What is the scientific name of the bloodfinger?
I served in the South African Defence Force in walvis Bay in 1990/91. And I fell in love with the desert whilst serving there. Unfortunately I never got to see the skeleton coastline but my heart will always be there.
Thank you for providing this video. What a great place and I hope conservation is going well. It needs to be saved for all to admire its natural wonders.
Thanks
Fantastic documentary! Thank you.
my home ;)
So interesting! Loved it. Thank you for sharing this beautiful land with us 🙂

Have there been any efforts been made to propagate any of these rare plants? I am a small grower who specializes in succulents and would be interested in helping to preserve.
you can propagate this succulent by leaf cutting, stem cutting, seed easily
There are videos about it, here on RUclips, of people's misconceptions that they can help conserve Succulent species by propagation, etc. Once we REMOVE the plant from its natural habitat, we are harming, not helping. If we propagate it elsewhere, it won't matter if we clone thousands. We have already biologically changed it. The only thing we achieved, was to dwindle the natural population. Yes, we may mass grow it in a greenhouse, sell millions online. But the natural species in their own territory is gone. The ones from greenhouses would never look the same, be the same. That is why these Countries are so protective over these plant species.
Funny that you think you’d be helping. You would be ruining thousands of years of evolution taking it away from its natural habitat
