Summary
Salt lakes are geographically widespread, numerous, and a significant part of the world’s inland aquatic ecosystems. 
Many human activities threaten salt lakes, especially surface inflow diversions, salinisation and other catchment activities, mining, pollution, biological disturbances (for instance introduction of exotic species), and anthropogenically-induced climatic and atmospheric changes.

Population pressure, negligence of duty, and corruption can describe the reasons why Lake Munyanyange, a unique ecosystem for migratory birds and flora in Kasese District, is facing extinction.
