PLEASE MARK MY ANSWER AS BRAINLIEST!!!

-> As the largest country in the Congo basin, forest governance in the Democratic Republic of Congo is challenging. 100-120 million hectares of the country are dense forest; savannah forest also covers a large area of the country. Protected areas cover 26 million hectares, and designated protection forests cover 15 million hectares. Deforestation has traditionally been low due to poor road access.

Answer 2

Answer:

Most of the deforestation in the Congo is caused by local subsistence activities by poor farmers and villagers who rely on forest lands for agriculture and fuelwood collection. Slash-and-burn is commonly used for clearing forest.
