The hand-drawn circles aren't red. In stricter stacks that would earn a downvote. :)

# What is the reason behind some of the biome anomalies in Africa?

(Asked by: username_0 on 2022-02-14)

For example :

1. The center of Africa lies in the Equatorial region and yet, does not have tropical rainforests all the way across.
2. The island of Madagascar has two different biomes

Since altitude and latitude doesn't seem to be the reason behind these anomalies, what other factors affect the biome of these places?
