African ecosystem
The African ecosystem is a diverse network of habitats that includes savannas, rainforests, deserts, and wetlands, supporting a wide range of plants and animals. It is characterized by large mammals like elephants, lions, and giraffes, along with numerous bird, insect, and plant species. These ecosystems are vital for maintaining climate balance, water cycles, and biodiversity. Human activities such as agriculture, urbanization, and poaching pose threats to these natural environments. Protecting Africa’s ecosystems is essential for the health of the planet and the well-being of both wildlife and local communities.
