How many animals are in the Nile River?

BRY2K

I don't know that an exact number of animals who call the Nile home has been sourced. I can tell you that the banks of the Nile are home to a large number of animal species including elephant, lion, leopard, hyena, giraffe, waterbuck, hartebeest, oribi, Uganda kob, bushbuck and many others. http://www.ac-safaris.com/uganda.php Jun 09 08, 10:39 AM

In addition to BRY's post -- There are over 300 different species of birds in Egypt. At any time of the year, there are birds everywhere, especially near the Nile. There are over a hundred species of fish in the Nile, though most of them are small, minnow-like fish that many of the birds live on. http://touregypt.net/wildegypt/nile3.htm http://touregypt.net/wildegypt/nile2.htm Another list follows at: http://www.unit5.org/cjhsimc/hotlists/nile_animals.htm Jun 09 08, 4:43 PM

Also many humans make their home on the banks of the great Nile. http://www.h-net.msu.edu/reviews/showrev.cgi?path=8309926716669 Jun 09 08, 8:12 PM
