 THE AFRICAN WILD ASS
The African wild ass is a type of donkey
found between Djibouti and Asmara. It is
also known as Equus Africanus. It’s diet
consists of grasses, bark and leaves. They
live in an arid(dry) climate. Despite living
in a arid climate, they depend on water
when not receiving enough moisture from
vegetation. They drink water every three
days once , they are reported to be
drinking salty water or brackish water.
 MOUNTAIN GORILLA
The mountain gorillas live on the Albertine rift
montane cloud forest, including the Virunga
volcanoes, ranging in altitude from 2200-4300
meters (7,200–14,100 ft). Most are found on
the slopes of three of the dormant volcanoes:
Karisimbi, Mikeno and Visoke .They are also
called beringei. In the thick forests of central
and west Africa, troops find plentiful food for
their vegetarian diet. They eat roots, shoots,
fruit, wild celery, and tree bark and pulp.

grubs, eggs, baby birds, and sometimes rodents
and hares. Vervets rarely drink water.
