wild animals in Ethiopia

Ethiopia is home to a diverse array of wild animals, thanks to its varied landscapes ranging from high mountains to lowlands and savannas. The Ethiopian wolf, the rarest canid in the world and found only in the Ethiopian Highlands, is a notable species. Other iconic wildlife includes the Gelada baboon, the Walia ibex, and the Ethiopian lion (though critically endangered). Additionally, Ethiopia's national parks and reserves provide habitats for elephants, leopards, hyenas, zebras, and a plethora of bird species, offering rich opportunities for wildlife enthusiasts and conservation efforts alike.
