This publication from IUCN and IOF is the first-ever comprehensive analysis of the state of biodiversity in 67 countries. Present on the five continents and across all oceans, the Francophonie network encompasses 29 million km2 of land and 25 million km2 of ocean. It hosts many emblematic species, such as polar bears, gorillas, okapis, lemurs, giant turtles and tortoises, European bisons and American wapitis. The Francophonie has a direct responsibility for almost one third of the worlds wetlands, coral reefs and lagoons, and for most tropical forests in Africa and large areas in Asia and South America.
