πŸ›‘ STOP mining on Mt. Nimba! 🐡 Re:wild, iucn_sga and five other international conservation groups are urging Guinea to reconsider iron-ore mining impacting the UNESCO World Heritage site to protect threatened species including: 🐡 Critically Endangered Western Chimpanzees, which are culturally unique here in their use of tools, nest-building, and dining on crabs πŸ¦€ 🐸 Critically Endangered Western Nimba Toads that give birth to live toadlets πŸ¦‡ Over 55 species of bats, including species found nowhere else on Earth πŸ‘‰ Protecting Mt. Nimba means protecting biodiversity, communities, and the future of West Africa’s environment. 🌍 Together we are calling for a 5-year renewable moratorium on mining, stronger protections for threatened species, and sustainable financing to safeguard this irreplaceable ecosystem. batconservationinternational faunafloraint amphibiansurvivalalliance world_heritage_watch iucn_sga #Biodiversity #Conservation #UNESCO #SaveNimba #WildlifeProtection #StopM...
