Rwanda national park expands gorilla habitat

Wilderness Safaris has entered an emerging partnership with the Rwanda Development Board and the African Wildlife Foundation to expand the Volcanoes National Park in Rwanda.

The aim is to increase the habitat of the critically endangered mountain gorillas by almost 28 hectares.

As part of the official handover, which took place at the park on January 10, 50 hagenia seedlings from the indigenous tree nursery at Bisate Lodge were planted by various dignitaries, to symbolise the beginning of the reforestation project.
