Chimpanzee trekking in Uganda
Kibale Forest National Park is inhabited by many large families of chimpanzees, several of which are accessible to human observation by walking trails cut through the dense forest. There is also a wonderfully diverse community of other primates, including red colobus, red-tailed guenon, white-nosed monkey, gray-cheeked mangabey, blue monkey, L'Hoest's monkey, and black and white colobus monkey. Along with these are olive baboon, bushbaby, and the nocturnal potto. These animals have been the subject of long-term research projects, so they are now tame and easy to observe. Kibale Forest is located just east of the Rwenzori Mountains, near the town of Fort Portal. You can also track chimpanzees in Queen Elizabeth and Murchison Falls National Parks.

Uganda probably has lost 90% of its chimpanzees in the last 500 years, while the human population has increased by 800% in the last 100 years alone.
There are only 4950 chimpanzees left in Uganda. 94.4% of sub-counties in Uganda have more people than all the chimpanzees in the whole country.
Chimpanzees and other primates can be seen in Uganda more easily than anywhere else in the world. They already attract many tourists and researchers that are visiting Uganda and generate revenue.
Chimpanzees share 98% of human genes making our closest living relative.
