The term for an area of African wilderness known for its wildlife is known as a savanna or safari region. These areas are characterized by grasslands, scattered trees, and a high density of diverse animal species. Savannas play a crucial role in ecosystems, supporting various herbivores and predators, including elephants, lions, and giraffes. Conservation efforts aim to protect these environments from threats like poaching and habitat loss, ensuring that Africa's unique wildlife continues to thrive.
