title="Tanzania">Tanzania</a>. In 2024, Kigosi National Park was downgraded to Forest Reserve. Kigosi National Forest Reserve was established in 2024. It is a part of the Moyowosi/Malagarasi wetlands complex, which is the largest <a href="/wiki/Wetland" title="Wetland">wetlands</a> complex in East Africa, and has an area of 8,265 km2. The <a href="/wiki/Malagarasi_River" title="Malagarasi River">Malagarasi</a>, Moyowosi, Nikonga, Ugalla, Kigosi, Nikonga, and Gombe are seven slow-moving rivers that meander through a vast and intricate network of <a href="/wiki/Marsh" title="Marsh">marshes</a>, plains lakes, and woodlands. These rivers should not be confused with the <a href="/wiki/Gombe_Stream_National_Park" title="Gombe Stream National Park">Gombe Stream National Park</a> where the chimpanzees live. These rivers eventually combine to form the <a href="/wiki/Malagarasi_River" title="Malagarasi River">Malagarasi River</a>, which empties into Ilagala's <a href="/wiki/Lake_Tanganyika" title="Lake Tanganyika">Lake Tanganyika</a>. With a total area of almost 92,000 square kilometers, the wetland system is larger than the entire country of Portugal.<sup id="cite_ref-KAS1_1-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-KAS1-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="History">History</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Kigosi_National_Park&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: History"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Formerly <i>Kigosi Game Reserve</i>, the protected area was first established in 1983.
