The fragile ecology is under constant threat - the severe drought has decimated the agriculture, and bush fires cost many lives and millions of dollars damage.

The statistics are meant to give an impression, not to stigmatise. Statistics taken from "Operation World, 7th edition, 2010", see also www.operationworld.org
