Uganda pictures (updated!).
05/09/04 01:59 AM

Below are various pictures from Uganda. A beautiful country with some of the friendliest people in Africa. It is one of the few countrys where gorillas, and chimps can be seen in the wild.

The best news is that it appears tourist hunting might open again since there are too many buff!

A huge Silverback gorilla. When you're only 2-3 meters away, you'd be amazed over how big they actually are. It's obvious that if they wanted to, ripping you in two wouldn't be a problem, and acting in a calm and controlled fashioon is vital so as to not aggrivate them. Yet the facinating thing with gorillas is that they are really very quiet and peacefull, in sharp contrast to chimps which are often very loud and aggressive:

When trekking after gorilla, you usually go out with a platoon of Ugandan soldiers, who's main function is to protect the gorillas from poachers, and us from rebels that sneak over the border from DRC and Rwanda.

A jungle shack we slept in. Which was a nice change from our tent.

Young gorilla:
