But however, the Uganda wildlife authority has reported that, the Gorilla family is back with two new members, the adult with a baby who were stolen from a gorilla group in Rwanda. This is great news for the gorilla group as the addition of another adult female will help to stabilize. The report shows that the groups are now happier and more relaxed. The full family group now includes Nyakagezi, the lead silverback who is around 50 years old and father to most of the group, 2 more silverbacks, brothers called Mark and Marfia, and 2 blackbacks who are also brothers, and sons of Nyakagezi. Rukondo and his brother are typical curious young males, they love to pose and play in the trees. The two females both have young babies, one, and another male of around 18 months, the other a baby girl of about 4 months.The group has been back in the Mgahinga National Park, they are now more reluctant to go back to Rwanda although they have sufficient food sources in Mgahinga, as the last time they crossed into Rwanda they were involved in a fight with another gorilla group.

It is so obvious that so many countries are fighting for Wildlife in then national park. In Uganda it was reported that Elephants are being killed at high rate because Ivory trade. In Kruger national. It such a very good voice to hear that someone is there fighting for these God given creatures. In October 1st 2012, Leonardo Dicaprio joins International Fund for animal welfare. It is great to know that today he is calling up the world community to put in more effort to stop the killing of elephants. DiCaprio has said “the rate of killing Elephant is so high in Africa, Uganda, Tanzania, Kenya and South Africa. This was realized after 24’3 tons of Ivory was captured at the international airports by the government authority worldwide. The boning of Ivory trade stared in 1989 but trade has continued up to date.” The global ambassador for IFAW animal action program DiCaprio, and Azzedine Downes, are joining forces to fight and reduce the demand of Ivory in chine, this will help reduce the killing of Elephant, It is reported that china is buying Ivory and Rhino horns at a high price, where by ivory is used for Jewel and Rhino hones for traditional local medicine which last week was claimed to be a cancer healer.

the Best of uganda Safari

Uganda safaris are anything but tame. Elephants, rhinos, reptiles, tree climbing Lions, Mountain Gorillas, Chimpanzee, Golden monkeys roam in Uganda National parks /rainforests. The popular safari is gorilla trekking. Uganda is home to largest number of apes, about 700 mountain gorilla remaining in the world, including a birding Safaris. Not all of them are thriving: The Ziwa Rhino sanctuary is most Uganda’s endangered large mammal, but the greatest fear is over the poachers who have killed some animals like Elephants, Rhinos, Uganda cobs. Though, most species aren’t threatened, thanks to Uganda Wildlife Authority system, which has worked so hard to protect parks so that when tourist visits Uganda, they will have unforgettable experience in their lives.

Choppers deployed to fight poaching in Tanzania’national parks

Aerial patrols have been initiated by conservation authorities in and around Tanzania national parks to fight poaching. The Tanzania National Parks (TANAPA) and the Ngorongoro Conservation Area Authority (NCAA), both based in Arusha will join forces in conducting aerial patrolling using helicopters and various wildlife rangers to combat poaching, crime and other illegal acts in Tanzania’s national parks in the Northern Circuit. According to the Tourism Officer with Tanzania National Parks, Mr. Johnson Manase, revealed that TANAPA and NCAA had agreed to pool their resources together and fight poaching in order to secure Tanzania’s wildlife from extinction. Wildlife rangers on the ground and a helicopter in the sky will be used to ensure faster rescue operations as well as aerial perambulation. the Public Relations Manager for the Ngorongoro Conservation Area Authority, Mr. Adam Akyoo, said the joint patrol initiative was taken because the area under NCAA and Serengeti national park were too close and this could help to simplify on this task hence putting Kenya’s national parks and game reserves on a safer side. The Serengeti eco-system is formed by The Ngorongoro Conservation Area, the Serengeti National Park and Kenya’s Maasai Mara, that is why during migrations millions of animals move back-and-forth between the three destinations to get better habitats. He pointed out that any attack on Serengeti also affects Ngorongoro and vice-versa, therefore a joint patrol between the two was necessary. Ngorongoro, whose main selling point is the wildlife filled, giant volcanic crater, and the Serengeti, an endless plain filled with practically all species that came off Noah’s ark after the legendary floods, account for 850,000 tourists out of the 1 million visitors who tour Tanzania every year. With such high number of visitors, both the Ngorongoro Conservation Area and the Serengeti National park are essentially Tanzania’s most popular and equally sensitive tourist destinations that call for high-level protection of its wildlife

Lion adapts an antelope calf after killing its mom In queen Elizabeth.

See picture of a lion adopting a helpless antelope calf. In Queen Elizabeth National park, a lion killed an antelope leaving an antelope calf as orphan. A team that was on Uganda Safari in Queen Elizabeth NP was on the scene and saw everything that was going. Some lioness was up on the tree watching. After the lion had eaten the antelope, a calf come in front of the lion with an attitude, you have eaten my mummy where I am going? You either eat me too. The lion tried roar in Oder to scare it away but the calf was not scare at all. Eventually the Lion felt pity and carried the calf away with it like as if it was its on baby. It first ran into its legs wanting to suck. This took around 45 minutes, and when the ranger came in with his loud motorcycle, the lion carried the calf to a safe place. From the report that we have as per now, is that calf is well and alive living with Lions.
