In the heart of Central Africa, Gabon is home to the second largest rainforest in the world, it is one of the last great untouched wilderness areas.
Hosting some of Africa's least exploited rain forests and coastal sanctuaries, conservationists regard Gabon as one of the last pockets of wilderness in Africa. Michael Fay, a research scientist with the Wildlife Conservation Society and the National Geographic Society, walked from the eastern edge of Congo to the western edge of Gabon during 1999 and 2000 - a 456-day trip past a stunning range of animals and animal habitats. After he finished this epic ‘megatransect,’ he had this to say: "Blue seas, white sand, elephants, whales, sea turtles, monkeys, bush pigs, unbelievable scenery," he said, “Gabon has it all. It has everything that everyone ever dreams about in paradise, as far as I’m concerned.”
80% of Gabon is covered by rainforest, and the population density barely reaches four people per square kilometre, mostly concentrated in the cities. Unsurprisingly, it is home to the last great concentrations of West African mammals, with an elephant population of 64,000, 20,000 Lowland Gorillas and over 35,000 Chimpanzees. You may also be lucky enough to catch a glimpse of some of the rarest African species such as the Mandrill, Sun-tailed monkey and Bongo. Over 680 species of birds have been recorded, and 320 species of orchid.
