Boma National Park

關於

Boma National Park is a protected area in eastern South Sudan near the Ethiopian border. It was established in 1977 and covers 22,800 km2 (8,800 sq mi) of grasslands and floodplains.

The park is in the Somali-Maasai and Sudano-Guinean biomes. The southern part of the park has extensive short grasslands and acacia bush. Woodland, mostly of Combretum and Ficus tree species, is in the eastern part. The western part is open grassland. Wetlands can be found, and though most are seasonal there are some permanent waterholes. The largest is the Juom Swamp in the north.

In August 2022, African Parks signed a 10-year renewable agreement with the government of South Sudan to restore Boma and Bandingilo National Parks and realise their potential as premier wildlife destinations.
