Mozambique
Mozambique is a country in Southern Africa. While it has a range of reserves, for many of them poaching has caused problems. However, a section of the Limpopo Transfrontier park is in Mozambique which means that animals can, and have been returning from South Africa.
This is not the only natural wealth of the country and I hope to add far more over time.
