The Wildlife
Some of the world’s fiercest and most fascinating wildlife species are native to Africa. Rwanda enjoys a high level of wildlife biodiversity. Rwanda’s high biodiversity combined with high livestock and population density creates numerous opportunities for wildlife-domestic animal-human interactions. There is a need for conservation education and outreach, and it is known that the public affects the success or failure of environmental protection efforts.
Despite its small territorial size, Rwanda is covered by diversified ecosystems: natural ecosystems consisting of mountain rainforests, gallery forests, savannas, wetlands, and aquatic lands, and ecosystems altered by man’s activities, afforestation, and cultivated areas. All these ecosystems accommodate flora and fauna wealth
