African ecosystems

African ecosystems are diverse and include forests, savannas, deserts, and wetlands. Each ecosystem hosts unique plants and animals adapted to its environment. For example, savannas are grasslands dotted with trees, home to species like lions and elephants, while the Congo Rainforest is rich in biodiversity, including many rare species. Deserts like the Sahara are harsh but host resilient flora and fauna. These ecosystems play crucial roles in global climate regulation and provide resources for millions of people. Conservation efforts are vital to protect them from threats such as climate change and habitat destruction.
