African wildlife

Savanna's wild inhabitants

African wildlife refers to the animals native to Africa, particularly large mammals like elephants, lions, giraffes, and zebras that inhabit savannas, jungles, and other ecosystems across the continent.

The term evokes images of safari tourism and conservation efforts: We went to Kenya to see the African wildlife.

It often carries connotations of endangered species and habitat preservation.
