Nestled in the heart of Cross River State, Nigeria, the Afi Mountain Wildlife Sanctuary is a testament to the country’s commitment to conservation. The purpose of establishing this sanctuary in 2000 was to rescue and ensure the survival of endangered animals.

Spanning approximately 100 square kilometers, the Afi Mountain Wildlife Sanctuary is a biodiverse haven, housing a variety of unique flora and fauna.

This sanctuary is a treasure trove of endangered wildlife, from the majestic Cross River gorilla to the elusive Nigeria-Cameroon chimpanzee. Join us as we embark on a journey to explore and uncover the wonders of the Afi Mountain Wildlife Sanctuary.
