Wildlife in Kenya National Park Threatened By Flooding
Lake Nakuru, famous for its flamingos, is under threat from several environmental pressures including flooding, deforestation and pollution.
A park ranger surveys damage caused by flooding at Lake Nakuru National Park, Kenya, August 18, 2015. The Park is home to some of the world's most majestic wildlife including lions, rhinos, zebras and flamingos. The scenery is stunning, from forests of acacia trees to animals congregating at the shores to drink. UNESCO says that with rapid population growth nearby, the area is under "considerable threat from surrounding pressures," particularly deforestation, a contributing factor in floods.
