Luba Crater Scientific Reserve, Protected rainforest area in Bioko Island, Equatorial Guinea.
The reserve spans 51,000 hectares of dense forest on Bioko Island, where annual rainfall reaches 10,000 millimeters, creating a rich natural environment.
The reserve, established in 2000, sits on land that connected to mainland Africa until the last ice age, shaping its current geological features.
Local communities of 7,200 residents near the reserve maintain traditional farming practices, growing bananas, breadfruit, and pineapples for sustenance.
The reserve contains hiking trails leading to the volcanic caldera, reaching an elevation of 2,261 meters above sea level.
Five globally threatened primate species inhabit the forest, with population densities ranging from 1.2 to 3.3 individuals per square kilometer.
