African Forest

The African forest—including the Guinean Forests of West Africa biodiversity hotspot, and the Congo Basin forest ecosystem—are both rich in wildlife and a site of global importance to our planet’s overall health. Cameroon’s Ebo forest is one of the last remaining intact forests in Central Africa, an important part of Cameroon’s rich natural heritage, and essential habitat for an array of wildlife, including some of the most endangered primates on Earth.

San Diego Zoo Wildlife Alliance collaborates with local communities to conserve endemic wildlife and biodiversity across Cameroon. Our conservation team is dedicated to enhancing the capacity of our local partners and international collaborators to enable a sustainable, long-term future for the unique wildlife of the African forest, as well as the communities that depend on it.
