Wildlife
What You Might Encounter
Mountain Gorilla
Critically endangered great apes — tracking a family group through ancient forest is one of Africa's most profound wildlife encounters.
Forest Elephant
Smaller and darker than savannah elephants, these elusive forest giants move silently through Bwindi's dense undergrowth.
L'Hoest's Monkey
A striking primate with a white beard and dark coat, endemic to Central African montane forests.
African Green Broadbill
A brilliantly coloured bird found nowhere else on earth outside this corner of East Africa.
Tree-Climbing Lion
In Ishasha, southern Queen Elizabeth NP, prides of lions have developed the unique habit of lounging in fig trees — a behaviour rarely seen anywhere else in Africa.
Hippo
The Kazinga Channel hosts one of Uganda's largest hippo populations, best seen on a boat cruise at sunset.
African Buffalo
Massive herds roam Queen Elizabeth's open grasslands, forming the backbone of the lion's prey base.
Uganda Kob
The national antelope of Uganda, found in impressive numbers across the park's savannah flats.
Chimpanzee
Kyambura Gorge — the "Valley of Apes" — cuts through the park and shelters a habituated chimp community.
Red Colobus Monkey
Large troops of these russet-and-black monkeys crash through the canopy, often in the company of mangabeys and blue monkeys.
African Forest Elephant
Smaller than their savannah cousins, forest elephants use Kibale's trails as ancient pathways between feeding grounds.
Plains Zebra
Lake Mburo is Uganda's only park with zebra — small herds graze alongside impala and eland on the open hillsides.
Impala
One of Uganda's only impala populations lives here, overlooked by the park's rocky ridges.
Leopard
The park's rocky terrain and dense bush make it excellent leopard habitat — often spotted on night drives.
