* Climate and Habitat: Africa has a diverse range of climates and habitats, from deserts and savannas to rainforests and mountains. This variety supports a much wider range of animal life than the more temperate and smaller island of England.
* Endemism: Africa has a high level of endemism, meaning many species are found only in Africa. These include iconic animals like lions, elephants, giraffes, and gorillas.
* Size: Africa is the second-largest continent in the world, providing vast areas for animals to live. England, a relatively small island nation, has a much smaller landmass.
While England has its own unique wildlife, including red deer, badgers, and various bird species, the sheer diversity and abundance of animals in Africa far surpasses that of England.
