Opis

Ethiopia has diverse wildlife populations which are comparable, species wise to that of other countries of east Africa. Inventory of the wildlife potential of the country indicates that there are 260 species and sub-species of mammals, 845 species of birds, 78 species of snakes, 54 species of amphibians and 101 species of fish. Among these 28 species of mammals, 28 species of birds, 3 species of snakes, 30 species of amphibian and 4 species of fish are endemic to the country. There are many problems associated with the conservation of the park, due to the current extensive wildlife management system in almost all the national parks.
