Experts look at Africa's wildlife and see the end of an era. "The golden age of mammals is ending here," says David Olson of the World Wildlife Fund(WWF). "Africa is the echo of the Stone Age."

Some regions, such as the Sahara desert, stretch nearly across the entire continent. About 9,000 years ago there were lakes in the Sahara, but for the past 5,000 years Africa has been somewhat dry. Much of the continent has been damaged by harmful agricultural methods. Scientists say a worse threat may be global warming, which could hit Africa hard, reducing the rains in dry areas and spreading diseases like malaria to once cooler parts of the continent. Some animals of thirsty lands are disappearing faster than from any other place on the planet.
