Mozambique
has a good number of wildlife parks and reserves which are home
to a variety of animal species living in their natural habitat.
The Limpopo National Park: one of the premier wildlife parks in
the country; it is set to be merged wit the Kruger National Park
and the Gonarezhou National Park in South Africa and Zimbabwe respectively
to form one of the largest game reserves in the world.
Maputo Elephant Reserve: this reserve is located approximately
80 km from the city of Maputo and is a sanctuary for a small
elephant population.
Gorongosa Game Reserve: this park’s wildlife population
was seriously depleted during the country’s civil war and
at present there is only a notable number of bird species here.
Quirimbas National Park: a marine park off the country’s
northern coast. This park features an impressive array of marine
plant and animal life.
