There are fewer than 3,000 pygmy hippos left in Africa. Those that remain are mostly found in Liberia, as well as in certain parts of Ivory Coast, Sierra Leone and Guinea.

With some conservation efforts to protect populations of African elephants proving successful, there have been many who have debated the need for a lifting of hunting bans. Recently, however, a new study suggests that the recovery of elephant populations may not be as strong as had been hoped. More specifically, the populations of African Forest […]

The cheetah is best known for its incredible speed; as the fastest land mammal on the planet, it can reach speeds of seventy miles per hour in a matter of seconds. However, its tiny teeth, delicate jaw and lean body -all of which contribute to its ability to accelerate so quickly – also make it […]

The roar of the majestic African lion, whose prides once roamed the savannas of the continent, is becoming increasingly silent as the African lion population declines at a startling rate. The most in-depth study, which was completed in 2012 by conservation specialists at Duke University in the US, revealed that the African lion population has […]

The death of Satao, a 45-year old elephant who had been living in a Kenyan reserve, was met with outrage by wildlife conservationists. The elephant’s killing at the hands of poachers was all the more worrying, due to the fact that this creature had been under almost 24-hour surveillance by the game rangers who had […]

Although the African continent houses only 17% of Earth’s forests, deforestation in the area has been estimated at four times the world average, demonstrating the outstanding need for intervention. Whilst […]

As a result of the relentless efforts of poachers in Kruger National Park in South Africa, approximately 500 rhinos are set to be evacuated from the area. Poaching is rampant in this park; more rhinos are killed here annually than in any other part of the country. The horn of the rhino is taken by […]
