Enquire nowMorocco Conservation
With around 18 endangered species of animal, Morocco conservation is vital to prevent the extinction of its wildlife. The country has a large percentage of deserts, and much of the natural forest has been destroyed, making habitat loss a major environmental issue in Morocco. Other issues include urbanisation, pollution, hunting and poaching.
Preservation Morocco
Preservation Morocco efforts include designated protected areas and national parks. With a number of critically endangered species facing extinction, such as Barbary leopard, Waldrapp, Mediterranean monk seal, Barbary hyena, Cuviers gazelle, efforts to protect these species from further threat are also imperative as part of the conservation projects in Morocco. The forests, woodlands, wetlands and mountain areas also contain the country’s precious natural resources and vegetation, making these important areas to protect as well. The desert meanwhile is home to a range of succulents that play a key role in preserving the infrequent water that comes to this arid region.
