Giant Groundsels on Mt. Kilimanjaro (Prehistoric Plant)

Mount Kilimanjaro in northern Tanzania attracts 40,000 hikers each year. While most hikers have a strong determination to climb to the top, many also lack knowledge about the risks of climbing to high altitude. Mount Kilimanjaro has a high risk of developing Acute mountain sickness (AMS), symptomatic high-altitude cerebral edema (HACE). Therefore, tour agencies should inform the hikers before visiting this natural wonder and say that they should be careful. In an emergency, there are no medical facilities on the mountain to intervene, especially for these diseases.
