List of Animals in Africa & Endangered Species of Africa
Africa, the world’s second largest and second-most-populous continent, is incredibly diverse. Africa supports roughly a quarter of the planet’s animal and plant species due to its equally diverse natural landscapes and biomes, which range from arid deserts and grasslands to tropical rainforests and ice-capped mountains.
However, due to delayed industrialization, innovation, and human activities such as deforestation, 4 million hectares of African forests are cut down annually, nearly double the global average. Prolonged conflicts have also devastatingly impacted the continent’s wildlife. These are just a few of Africa’s most endangered species in desperate need of protection and conservation before it’s too late. Climate change is exacerbating all of these issues.
