RAINFORESTS IN AFRICA

Most of Africa's remaining rainforests are found in the Congo river basin on the Atlantic Ocean side of the continent.

The Congo rainforest is famous for its gorillas, chimpanzees, and elephants as well as its native population of forest dwellers known as pygmies.

Unfortunately rainforests in the Congo are disappearing faster than forests anywhere else in the world due to logging and problems resulting from civil wars in the area, Wildlife in the Congo is endangered from hunting.
