Taï National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site in Côte d'Ivoire, is renowned for preserving one of the last significant expanses of primary rainforest in West Africa. Recognized in 1982, it harbors a remarkable diversity of flora and fauna, including endangered species like the pygmy hippopotamus and unique chimpanzee populations known for tool use. Its rich biodiversity and high rate of endemism make it a critical conservation area and a valuable scientific resource.
