Wildlife of North Africa

All About North Africa's Wildlife

The Sahara Desert is the largest desert in the world and occupies around 10 percent of the African Continent. Although there isn't man species in Norht Africa, some highly adapted species do survive with their adaptations to the desert. Only rock, sand and sparse vegetation exist over North Africa. In this website, our focus is on four countries in North Africa: Morocco, Sudan, Egypt, and Guinea. With each of these countries we focused on five main animals from that specific country.
