About us
Wildlife migration in South Sudan
Southern Sudan, once one of Northern Africa’s most pristine wilderness areas, was tragically disrupted by the civil war in 1983. Today, the protected regions in South Sudan continue to be home to a wealth of endangered wildlife species. These areas host the second-largest population of wildlife in the world, with key migratory routes passing through the country’s vast parks.
South Sudan boasts an extensive network of protected areas and game reserves, some of which date back to the colonial era and the Sudanese regime of the 1930s. Under the Wildlife Conservation and National Parks Act of 2003 (Schedule IV), the country is home to 18 designated wildlife protection zones, including six national parks: Badingilo, Boma, Lantoto, Nimule, Shambe, and Southern National Park. Additionally, there are 12 game reserves, including Ashana, Bangangai, Bire-Kpatous, Boro, Chillkou, Fanyikang, Juba, Kidepo, Mbarizunga, Meshra, Namutina, and Zeraf.
These protected areas reflect South Sudan’s diverse ecosystems and breathtaking landscapes. Among the most notable is the Sudd Wetland, a unique freshwater ecosystem recognized under the Ramsar Convention on Wetlands of International Importance in 2012. This wetland, part of South Sudan’s conservation efforts, plays a crucial role in the health of the nation’s wildlife and environment.

Wildlife Migration in South Sudan
South Sudan is home to one of the world’s most remarkable wildlife migrations. Every year, millions of animals, including white-eared kob, Mongalla gazelle, and reedbuck, travel across the Boma-Badingilo-Jonglei landscape. This migration is not only a spectacular natural event but also a vital part of our ecosystem, contributing to biodiversity and the health of our environment. Protecting these migratory routes ensures the survival of these species and the balance of the region’s wildlife.
