Day Forest National Park (alternate: Forêt du Day National Park) is a national park in the Goda Mountains of Djibouti. It protects an important forest island in a sea of semi-desert, with four dominant species: Juniperus procera, Olea africana, Buxus hildebrantii, and Tarchonanthus camphoratus.[3] The forest as a whole has been under long-term environmental threat: 88 percent of the Day Forest has been lost in the last two centuries, and more than 20 percent of the loss has occurred in the last 50 years.[4]
