All the animals listed at this site are either native to Egypt or found in Egypt now. The description of each animal will tell you if it is native, or if it has simply migrated to Egypt. Most of these animals were native to Egypt, which means they'll be native to Cairo as well. However, most animals (unless tamed or domesticated) have a general aversion towards humans and likely wouldn't be found in the city.
Plants are those common in dry subtropical and tropical lands, such as papyrus. Egypt has no forests but does have date palm and citrus groves; eucalyptus and cypress have been introduced.
