With fewer than 100 mountain bongos remaining in the wild, the species is classified as critically endangered and is found only within Kenya’s montane forests.
While the Aberdare population remains the stronghold for the species, recent camera trap images reconfirming mountain bongos in the Maasai Mau have offered renewed hope and highlighted the importance of continued conservation efforts.
Through ranger patrols, camera trap monitoring, conservation education, and forest restoration initiatives, the Mountain Bongo Project is working to help secure a future for the species in the wild. Your support helps make this work possible.
Together, we can help secure a future for the mountain bongo in the wild.
