Each coin in the Rwandan Wildlife Series has shared features and differentiations that make new releases unique. For example, the background field on the obverse face bears the same design for each new coin in the series. An outline of the African continent dominates the background field and highlights the geological features of the continent, most notably the Nile River along the eastern coast.

In the lower-left field of each coins obverse design is the specific design element that changes from one year to the next, with each new design honoring a different species from the African continent. For 2016, the meerkat was chosen as the animal to represent the 9^threlease in the coin series.
