Dulombi-Boe National Park 2, Guinea-Bissau
The government of Guinea Bissau has established new protected areas, including the Dulombi-Boe-Tchétché complex that consists of two national parks and three ecological corridors.
In order to protect a more complete and representative sample of key habitats, efforts made in recent years consisted in developing the national parks of Boé and Dulombi on the country’s mainland, close to the border with Senegal and Guinea.
These parks now offer protection for a remarkable biodiversity such as lions, panthers, chimpanzees or elephants. Comprising of a Ramsar site, called Wendu Tcham, that is home to major waterbird populations, in addition to three wildlife corridors, the Boé National Park ensures connectivity between the two parks and with the Lagoas de Cufada Natural Park and the Cantanhez National Park.
