The Bengangai Game Reserve is found in South Sudan, on the border with the Democratic Republic of Congo, west of the town of Yambio.[1] Established in 1939, it is both a game reserve and an Important Bird Area.[2] This site covers 170 square kilometres (17,000 ha).[3] Chimpanzees are thought to habitate the game reserve; however, there is no recent information on their population.[4]
The vegetation of the area consists mainly of Guinea-Congolian forest.[5]
