Botswana: Chobe/Linyanti considered for World Heritage sites

Botswana is considering a nomination of Chobe/Linyanti natural site for possible listing as one of the World Heritage sites.

The Chobe/Linyanti area is one of the most distinct ecosystems in Southern Africa and perhaps one of the world's last true remaining wilderness areas. The Chobe/Linyanti area represents significant ongoing ecological and biological processes in the evolution and development of fresh water and communities of plants and animals. Most parts of the area such as the Linyanti and Selinda Reserve are still intact as they are the least visited and found in the most pristine corners of Botswana.
