Mojo Mangrove is a forest area located in the tidal area and becomes a habitat for various organisms in it. Mojo mangrove forest is an ecosystem that is a place to live and breed various species of birds, because of the existence of habitat and food that supports. The location of the Mojo mangrove forest which is far from the settlement is a supporting factor which is the reason birds love the habitat.
