Central African forests are teeming with wildlife and are critically important to the health of our planet. Their lush river valleys and rocky mountain peaks contain the world’s second-largest tropical rainforest, an abundance of rare plants, and some of the most endangered primates on Earth—including western lowland gorillas. In Cameroon, we’re working together with local communities to protect wildlife and biodiversity across this vast region.
Join us to celebrate Wild Weekend: African Forest, September 20–21 at the San Diego Zoo, to explore how we are saving, protecting, and caring for fascinating wildlife throughout this forest landscape. From 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., swing into immersive activities for wildlife allies of all ages and discover how you make a difference through our African Forest Conservation Hub.
