Rainforests and Savannahs

Africa is a land of extremes. Humid rainforests are home to an incredible diversity of life – thousands plant species come together to create an environment where mammals, birds, insects and amphibians thrive. In the hot, arid grasslands of the savannah, trees are sparse and the hot season never seems to end.
