NIGERIA-FORESTRY-CONSERVATION-ELEPHANT

This aerial view taken on June 12, 2019 shows the Omo Forest, a home for elephants, northeast of Africa's biggest city Lagos. Omo, spreading across some 1,325 square kilometres (510 square miles) of southwestern Ogun state, was protected as a government reserve nearly a century ago. A UNESCO "biosphere reserve" of global importance, it is one of the last patches of pristine rainforest left in Nigeria. Nigeria's deforestation rates are among the highest in the world, according to the UN's Food and Agriculture Organization. (Photo by Moise GOMIS / AFP) (Photo by MOISE GOMIS/AFP via Getty Images)
