Woodlands dominate the landscape of the park, which is the only protected area for chimpanzees within the Manding Plateau area. The park has been designated an Important Bird Area (IBA) by BirdLife International because it supports significant populations of violet turacos, blue-bellied rollers, fox kestrels, Senegal parrots, bronze-tailed starlings, white-crowned robin-chats, white-fronted black-chats, Mali and black-faced firefinches, and grey-headed olivebacks.[3]
