Wildlife

Southern Algeria, great desert, shelters wildlife essentially including gazelles, jerboas, sand cats, cheetahs, porcupines and lizards. Higher up, in the steep slopes of Hoggar are found audads. Stagnant water points are mosquitoes' nests. The latter are strangely less numerous than flies which will not leave you even for a second. Northwards, camps are filled with striped hyenas, foxes, weasels, wild cats, hares, jackals and wild boars. The stump-tailed monkey prefers the forest areas. In winter, Algeria welcomes some European migratory birds like the storks. In all, animals you commonly see in Algeria are dromedaries, locally known as camels (or méhari), sheep, goats and horses
