Djibouti is a country located in the Horn of Africa, with a population of under 1 million people. Djibouti currently does not have a location stamp. While there might not be many active Slowly users there, it would be very nice if every country in the world had at least one location stamp that is not a flag. The Djibouti spurfowl or Djibouti francolin is a bird species in the pheasant family that is critically endangered and found only in Djibouti. This species is grayish-brown overall with white stripes and streaks on its underparts which become finer towards the upperparts. It has black markings on the head and a gray crown and has a short tail. It is 35 cm (1.15 ft) in length, and weighs 940 g (33 oz). Its natural habitat is high altitude subtropical or tropical dry forest composed primarily of African juniper. However, the juniper forests preferred by the spurfowl are dying, so it may be found in other habitats, such as box-tree forest. This bird is only known from two locations in Djibouti, one of which is largely unsurveyed. It can be found in small groups and is extremely shy. It is known to feed on berries, seeds, and termites, and it breeds between December and February. It is considered a critically endangered species because it underwent a 90% population decline in twenty years. The degrading of its juniper habitat through man-made disturbances, such as overgrazing, is a major threat to the spurfowl's survival. Ongoing conservation work includes the restoration of some juniper forest, and surveys to obtain accurate population counts and to raise awareness. Djibouti francolin is a symbol of the country and has been featured on Djibouti's currency (francs) and postage stamps. To the native people of Djibouti, it is known as the kukaaq . https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Djibouti_spurfowl https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Djibouti
