  • La Reserva Forestal Mukura és una reserva natural protegida a la part nord-occidental de Ruanda, que cobreix uns 1.200 km² El bosc de Mukura està situada a la regió oriental ruandesa de la falla Albertina, que es trona a la divisòria Congo-Nil. Abans una part d'una franja del bosc montà que s'estenia des del bosc de Nyungwe al Parc dels Volcans, però ara Mukura és un bloc aïllat de forest. Mukura va ser designada com a reserva en 1951. Originalment cobria una superfície de 30.000 hectàrees. No obstant això, gairebé la meitat del total de la coberta forestal i la biodiversitat s'han perdut des de llavors, deixant el bosc amb una superfície de només 16.000 hectàrees. Hi ha molts factors que han provocat a aquest descens, inclosa una densitat de població de prop de 600 persones per km² i un ingrés mitjà de les famílies locals de 3 $/mes, aquest últim causant que els habitants explotin el bosc per obtenir solvència financera. La temperatura anual del bosc de Mukura és de 15 °C. El bosc s'eleva a una alçada mitjana de 2600 metres sobre el nivell del mar i rep 1,5 m de precipitació anualment. (ca)

Once part of a swath of mountain forest that extended all the way from Nyungwe to the Volcanoes Park, the Mukura is now an isolated chunk of forest. Mukura was designated a reserve in 1951. It originally covered an area of 30,000 hectares. However, nearly half of the total forest cover and biodiversity has been lost since, leaving the forest with an area of only 16,000 hectares. A host of factors have led to this decline, including a population density of nearly 600 people per km2 and a mean local household income of $3/month, the latter causing inhabitants to exploit the forest for financial solvency. The annual temperature of Mukura Forest is 15° C. The forest rises to an average height of 2600 meters above sea level, and receives 1500 mm of rainfall annually. The reserve has about 163 species of birds. (en)
