Mount Tullu Dimtu has a height of 4377 meters above sea level. The mountain can be found in South Eastern Ethiopia's Bale National Park. The mountain is home to a wide range of animal and plant species. Rodents account for one-third of the mountain's mammal population. The Giant mole-rat is a one-of-a-kind species in the area. The rodent serves as prey for the Ethiopian wolf, which can also be found in the mountain. Over 280 bird species can be found on the mountain. The area is also home to antelope species such as Menelik's bushbuck and mountain nyala. Human activity is endangering Mount Tully Dimtu's natural resources.
