UNESCO on Wednesday removed Senegal’s largest national park, Niokolo-Koba, from a list of endangered sites following “positive steps” by authorities to improve conservation in the biodiversity hub.

Niokolo-Koba, located in the southeastern Tambacounda region and spanning an area of 913,000 hectares (3,500 square miles), was inscribed on the World Heritage in Danger list in 2007 by the UN bod
