New Gorilla Families

The Uganda Wildlife Authority (UWA) has announced the introduction of a new gorilla tracking family for those visiting Bwindi Impenetrable National Park. The UWA has kept sustainable tourism and conservation at the top of its priorities during the habituation process. The UWA will now have 194 normal gorilla tracking permits and 4 gorilla habituation experience permits for daily bookings.
