# Réserve forestière de Boin Tano

La réserve forestière de Boin Tano est une réserve naturelle située dans la région occidentale du Ghana. Il a été créé en 1968. Ce site, d'une superficie de 129 km$^2$ (50 mi$^2$), est riche à la fois en espèces fauniques et floristiques.

## Faune et flore

La réserve forestière de Boin Tano est située à seulement cinq degrés au nord de l'équateur et à environ 50 kilomètres (31 mi) au nord du golfe de Guinée dans l'océan Atlantique, ce qui lui confère un climat chaud et humide. Les prairies mêlées de maquis et de forêts dominent la réserve. Des centaines d'espèces différentes vivent dans cette zone protégée et ses limites.
