Many antelopes found in Dinder face threats due to illegal hunting inside the park, leading to the extinction of certain species like the Lelwel hartebeest and Soemmerring's gazelle. Even among the species still present today, their numbers have decreased, in some cases, by as much as 70%. Protecting Dinder antelopes from hunting is crucial for preserving the park's biodiversity. The existence of antelopes is pivotal for maintaining the delicate balance of Dinder National Park's ecosystem.

The flora of Erkwit is exceptionally rich and influenced by various factors, including its winter mist, high elevation, location as a transition point between the savanna and arid regions and at the end of the Sahelian zone. These factors resulting in diverse habitats within a relatively small area. Erkwit were divided into five zones based on flora, influenced by moisture distribution each zone has characteristic plants. ‘Zone I’ in the northeastern region, is the moistest while ‘Zone V’ is driest. The common trees in Erkwit are Maytenus senegalen, Dodonaea viscosa, Euphorbia abyssinica, Acacia etbaica. The endemic plants to Erkwit including Aloe zubb Aloe Sinkantana and Nepeta sudanica. Erkwit also home to the endangered tree Dracaena ombet.

During the winter months, Erkwit is often cover in clouds for extended periods, typically from October to March. Positioned on a westerly bend of the Red Sea, Erkwit is exposed to about 650 km (approximately 400 miles) of open sea in the direction of the northerly winds. The continental northerly winds, traversing the warm waters of the Red Sea, absorb a significant amount of moisture. As these moisture-laden winds encounter no dissipating obstacles before reaching the cool hills of Erkwit, orographic rain occurs, covering Erkwit with mist known locally as "Shabora." Consequently, abundant evergreen vegetation cover Erkwit, and based on mist distribution and elevation, the five zones are formed.
