One of the most exciting wildlife viewing experiences in Uganda is the tracking of Southern White Rhinos on foot. Rhinos are naturally solitary animals, but the youngsters tend to stick close to their mother until they are fully grown. This rhino population is very much habituated since they are protected by armed rangers 24/7. This makes them approachable to within 30 meters, but it is important to note that wild animals are often unpredictable so it’s important to follow instructions from the ranger.
Another exciting experience at Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary is to head out early morning hours on a canoe in Lugogo swamp is search of the resident prehistoric shoebill. This experience enjoys a very high success rate, but you will not get as close as you might in the delta at Murchison falls.
