Biodiversity of Central Africa and Tanzania; NBP's Project Research
Central Africa inclusive of Tanzania continues to receive our attention; it is a global cradle of biodiversity. This bioregion has some of the oldest forests on Earth; this combined with relative climatic stasis over tens of million years has produced spectacular plants and animals.
Various taxa have had ample time to radiate into broad and narrow niches. Unfortunately, the natural communities are under increasing pressure due to habitat destruction and other threats. Ecotourism has been hampered by Covid, therefore NBP decided to support the human and animal communities with a lengthy research visit in late 2021.

We shall be describing our project ideas here over the next several months.
NBP appreciates all our supporters with their tax-deductible capital donations for these desperately needed projects. Project researchers and volunteers are also welcomed.
We thank the AP. PA. of Secaucus NJ and their esteemed, unique and special staff inclusive of the many DMDs we have been exposed to. We appreciate those that support the community.
Here find just a few of the animals, projects areas that we are contemplating conserving:
