Two new gorilla families have been introduced to Bwindi Impenetrable Forest by Uganda Wildlife Authority. The new families, who have been named Orugonzo and Kahungye, have been habituated and are set for tracking in June of this year. The Orugonzo family are located in the Mburameizi area of the Bwindi Impenetrable National Park and can be easily reached from Gorilla Forest Camp. The Kahungye family will be located in the eastern part of the forest in the Nkuringo Sector. This brings the total number of tracking groups from 7 to 9 and the available gorilla permits from 56 to 72 of which 40 will be accessible from Gorilla Forest Camp. The camp manager will be tracking these groups ahead of their official opening.
