Beschreibung
Antelopes in Ethiopia are facing increasing challenges posed by anthropogenic pressures emanating from habitat destruction for human settlements, agricultural land expansion, livestock rearing, and illegal killings or poaching. As a result some of the antelope species were categorized as Endangered, while many as Threatened. These wildlife species, including the endemic Mountain Nyala are unique and valuable natural heritages that need to be protected and conserved for the coming generations. In Ethiopia, there are Laws and polices that are endorsed and meant to protect and conserve such species, but they are rarely materialized for various reasons. Hence, I recommend and dedicate this book for those who in one way or another dedicate their life for betterment of wildlife resources of the world, particularly endangered wild animals and antelopes of Ethiopia.
