!Welcome To Your Safari!
After days of exhausing flights, stopovers and car drives, you're finally here: the entrance of the national park. You've made it. But this is only the beginning, your real safari journey will start soon. An endless horizon of ''savannah'' surrounded by ''mountains'' and ''tropical rainforests'' awaits behind this small checkpoint. And who knows how many amazing animals are lying back there?
<span id="intro_1"><<click "[...]">><<replace "#intro_1">>"Thousands of different species", Robert tells you. "''Mammals'', ''birds'' and ''reptiles''. This park includes the best of east African safaris. It's also the biggest in the region." Your guide looks at you as excited as a child despite his mid-forties. "I've done it a thousand times, but even 20 years later I still feel like the first time."
"Also, feel free to ask me anything", he says, "although I'll probably tell you about it first because I talk a lot." It's true that he talks a lot, and sometimes in a very peculiar way. He definitely has encyclopedic knowledge about the animals but he's also very precise when he tells you about them.
<span id="intro_2"><<click "[...]">><<replace "#intro_2">>"If we're lucky we'll see some big game today! ''Lions'', ''elephants'', maybe even ''leopards''! But you know, when you go on a safari, you drive a lot through open spaces looking for the big game so fortunately to entertain yourself on the way you have the birds. I'm a birder myself and I'm sure we'll see many fascinating ones today!" He just finished his sentence when the ranger came back to the car to give him the signed permit to enter.
You drive through the portal into this wild area. But where should you go first?

"Fascinating thing", adds Robert. "Chestnut sparrows are gregarious, and are only occasionally found away from flocks."
"I know some more", he explains. "The chestnut sparrow is found in East Africa in mostly lower country from Darfur through Kordofan, South Sudan, Somalia, Uganda, and Kenya to north-central Tanzania.

The ''Black-capped social weaver''!", says Robert. "The black-capped social weaver is a sparrow-like of bird that has been assigned to the weaverbird family."
"Just so you know", he tells. "The black-capped weaver is 13 cm long and weighs 18–24 g. Adult birds have an extensive and well-delimited black cap that runs from the bill opening, across the crown to the back neck, and also covers the area around the eye and ear."
"I don't want to sound too scientific", says Robert. "The black-capped social weaver is monogamous and breeds in colonies. It feeds primarily on grass seeds, but also takes juicy vegetation to get enough water, and insects, particularly to feed the nestlings. Favoured nesting trees include Acacia-species, Delonix and Euphorbia, and the roofed nests that are constructed by both male and female, are attached from thin, hanging branches, and are made of many straight grass straws."
"Furthermore", he describes. "Pseudonigrita cabanisi occurs in central and southern Ethiopia, much of Kenya, a patch of Somalia towards the tripoint with Ethiopia and Kenya, and in northern Tanzania."<<addToInv "Black-capped social weaver">><<endif>>

"I don't want to sound too scientific", he suggests. "Compared to other members of the Felinae, the wildcat is a small species, but is nonetheless larger than the housecat. The wildcat is similar in appearance to a striped tabby cat, but has relatively longer legs, a more robust build, and a greater cranial volume."
"This might sound too precise", informs Robert. "The wildcat is a largely solitary animal, except during the breeding period. The size of its home range varies according to terrain, the availability of food, habitat quality, and the age structure of the population."
"You might not know", he mentions. "The wildcat's distribution is very broad, encompassing most of Africa, Europe, and southwest and central Asia into India, China, and Mongolia."<<addToInv "Wildcat">><<endif>>

"I want to keep it simple", he narrates. "The leopard's skin colour varies by climate and habitat from pale yellow to yellowish brown or golden."
"Peculiar species", describes Robert. "Leopards are active mainly from dusk till dawn and rest for most of the day and for some hours at night in thickets, among rocks or over tree branches. Leopards have been observed walking 1–25 km across their range at night; they may even wander up to 75 km if disturbed."
"Furthermore", he continues. "The leopard has the largest distribution of all wild cats, occurring widely in Africa as well as eastern and southern Asia, although populations have shown a declining trend, and are fragmented outside of sub-Saharan Africa. Within sub-Saharan Africa, the species is still numerous and even thriving in marginal habitats where other large cats have disappeared, although there is considerable potential for human-leopard conflict due to leopards preying on livestock."<<addToInv "Leopard">><<endif>>

"I'll tell you what you need to know", informs Robert. "Like other galagos, Prince Demidoff's bushbaby is nocturnal and arboreal. During the day it sleeps in a nest made of dense vegetation or leaves some 5 to 40 m off the ground."
"Additionnaly", he says.

"Chimpanzees live in communities that typically range from 20 to more than 150 members, but spend most of their time traveling in small parties of just a few individuals. The eastern chimpanzee is both arboreal and terrestrial and spend its nights in the trees, while most of its daytime hours are spent on the ground. Chimpanzees walk using the soles of their feet and their knuckles, and they can walk upright for short distances."
"I can say a bit more about it", he says. "The chimpanzee spends time both in trees and on the ground, but usually sleeps in a tree, where it builds a nest for the night.

"Furthermore", remarks Robert. "Leopards are active mainly from dusk till dawn and rest for most of the day and for some hours at night in thickets, among rocks or over tree branches. Leopards have been observed walking 1–25 km across their range at night; they may even wander up to 75 km if disturbed."

"Just so you know", he mentions. "Adult chimpanzees in the wild weigh between 40 and 65 kilograms. Males can measure up to 160 centimetres and females up to 130 centimetres in height."
"If you want to know more", adds Robert. "Chimpanzees live in communities that typically range from 20 to more than 150 members, but spend most of their time traveling in small parties of just a few individuals. The eastern chimpanzee is both arboreal and terrestrial and spend its nights in the trees, while most of its daytime hours are spent on the ground. Chimpanzees walk using the soles of their feet and their knuckles, and they can walk upright for short distances."
"I can say a bit more about it", he remarks. "The chimpanzee spends time both in trees and on the ground, but usually sleeps in a tree, where it builds a nest for the night.

"Funny thing is", says Robert. "The Abyssinian crimsonwing occurs in forest, particularly montane forest, from 1500m to 300m above sea level in Kenya, at the forest edge or in clearings where it normally remains among the undergrowth but sometimes seen higher in creepers. It also occurs in bamboo, thickets and dense brush, especially along watercourses.

"Moreover", he adds. "The Pousargues’s mongoose ranges from northern Democratic Republic of the Congo, South Sudan, Central African Republic to western Uganda. Mongooses sighted and recorded by a camera-trap in 2011 and 2012 in the Central African Republic were preliminarily identified as Pousargues's mongoose. In 2013, a group of Pousargues's mongooses was observed near Lake Albert in Uganda’s Semliki Wildlife Reserve."<<addToInv "Pousargues's mongoose">><<endif>>

"I may be too precise but", he declares. "The leopard's skin colour varies by climate and habitat from pale yellow to yellowish brown or golden."
"I can also tell you this", remarks Robert. "Leopards are active mainly from dusk till dawn and rest for most of the day and for some hours at night in thickets, among rocks or over tree branches. Leopards have been observed walking 1–25 km across their range at night; they may even wander up to 75 km if disturbed."
"Funny thing is", he continues. "The leopard has the largest distribution of all wild cats, occurring widely in Africa as well as eastern and southern Asia, although populations have shown a declining trend, and are fragmented outside of sub-Saharan Africa. Within sub-Saharan Africa, the species is still numerous and even thriving in marginal habitats where other large cats have disappeared, although there is considerable potential for human-leopard conflict due to leopards preying on livestock."<<addToInv "Leopard">><<endif>>

''And the animals?'' Well, they won't be waiting for you. But, as long as their ''environment'' is protected, they will be here and you can always come by and say hi.
