Ethiopia is the roof of Africa; most of the country is a volcanic plateau a mile-and-a-half high.
The expedition explores one of the most beautiful subterranean watercourses in the world. The Cave of Sof Omar houses a million bats.
In Harrar town, a man feeds wild hyenas which take bones from his hands.
