WILD LIFE
Uganda, often called the “Pearl of Africa,” is home to an incredible array of wildlife that draws nature lovers from around the world. Its diverse landscapes, from lush rainforests to vast savannas, support a rich variety of animals and ecosystems.
A TREASURE OF BIODIVERSITY
One of Uganda’s biggest attractions is its population of mountain gorillas, found in Bwindi Impenetrable National Park and Mgahinga Gorilla National Park. These endangered primates, sharing 98% of human DNA, offer a rare chance to witness their gentle, social behaviour in the wild. Another highlight is the chance to track chimpanzees in Kibaale National Park, known for its dense forests and vibrant primate life.
The country’s savannas, particularly in Queen Elizabeth and Murchison Falls National Parks, teem with classic African wildlife. Visitors can spot lions, elephants, giraffes, hippos, and leopards. The Nile River, flowing through Murchison Falls, is a hotspot for crocodiles and rare shoebill storks. Uganda also boasts over 1,000 bird species, making it a paradise for birdwatchers.
Conservation efforts are key to protecting Uganda’s wildlife, with community-based tourism helping to preserve habitats while supporting local livelihoods. Whether trekking through misty forests or cruising along the Kazinga Channel, Uganda’s wildlife offers unforgettable encounters with nature’s wonders.

WATER BODIES
A Treasure Worth Preserving
Nestled in the heart of East Africa, Uganda is blessed with an extraordinary network of water bodies that are the lifeblood of its people, economy, and ecosystems. From the majestic Lake Victoria, the second-largest freshwater lake in the world, to the iconic Nile River, which begins its epic journey in Jinja, Uganda’s waters are a natural wonder that demand our attention and protection.
These water bodies are more than scenic attractions; they sustain millions of lives. Lake Victoria alone supports vibrant fishing communities, providing livelihoods and food security for over 4 million Ugandans. The Nile, with its powerful flow, generates hydroelectricity that powers homes and industries, driving economic growth. Wetlands like those in the Mabamba Swamp nurture rare biodiversity, including the elusive shoebill, while serving as natural water filters and flood regulators.
