A wildfire destroyed around 8,700 hectares of vegetation on Mount Kenya since September 1. The flames consumed a significant area of forest, representing a considerable loss of biodiversity in the region.

Emergency teams continue to fight the flames this Tuesday. The efforts are focused not only on controlling the fire, but also on protecting the wildlife and existing high-altitude habitats in the affected area.

Mount Kenya, where the fire is occurring, is a region of great ecological importance. The firefighting efforts aim to minimize the damage caused to the ecosystem and the species that live there.
