There are two species of Bongo, the Western, or Lowland Bongo, and the Eastern, or Mountain Bongo. Their names give you a clue as to their habitat. They live in the dense forests of Africa, and they are both listed by the International Union for Conservation of Nature, or "IUCN" Red List. The Western Bongo is found in central to west African countries, in tropical jungles where dense undergrowth is found, from Kenya through the Democratic Republic of Congo, Ethiopia, and Ghana, they can be found scattered through out several other countries in the general area. While the Eastern Bongo is limited to very isolated populations in Liberia, Mali, Niger, and the Sudan. The Western bongo is listed by the IUCN Red list as "near threatened", but the Eastern Bongo is listed as "critically endangered" both are listed with a population trend of "decreasing".
