ABSTRACT

\n\n

The study investigated the abundance, density, and distribution of three wetland bird species in the Ruzizi Delta from April 2019 to November 2021. The study was conducted in five sites of the Rusizi Burundian Delta and five sites of the Ruzizi Congolese Delta. The density of the Cattle Egret, Black Crake, and African Jacana was higher in the protected Rusizi Burundian Delta compared to the unprotected Ruzizi Congolese Delta. The distribution or fluctuation had a peak in May, the rainiest month, and a minimum in July, the least rainy month. The maximum was always higher for the protected Rusizi Burundian Delta, and lower for the unprotected Ruzizi Congolese Delta. The Qui Squarred test and the Student's t test showed that the differences in maximum and minimum fluctuations between the protected Rusizi Burundian Delta and the unprotected Ruzizi Congolese Delta were significant. The study suggests that the sustainability of the three wetland bird species and their acolytes in the Ruzizi Delta requires the creation of a protected area in the Ruzizi Congolese Delta wetlands.
