!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?

"Peculiar species", he explains. "The fur of the mountain gorilla, often thicker and longer than that of other gorilla species, enables them to live in colder temperatures."
"You must also know", he explains. "The mountain gorilla inhabits the Albertine Rift montane cloud forests and of the Virunga Volcanoes, ranging in altitude from 2,200–4,300 metres.

"Interesting fact", describes 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."
"In case you didn't know", he adds. "The species is found in Angola, Benin, Burkina Faso, Burundi, Cameroon, Central African Republic, Republic of the Congo, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Ivory Coast, Equatorial Guinea, Gabon, Ghana, Guinea, Liberia, Mali, Nigeria, Rwanda, Sierra Leone, Tanzania, Togo, Uganda, possibly Kenya, and possibly Malawi."<<addToInv "Prince Demidoff's bushbaby">><<endif>>

"Additionnaly", he mentions. "The male golden-winged sunbird is about 9 in long and the female is about 6 in long, the male having long central tail feathers."
"Also", adds Robert. "Golden-winged sunbirds consume the nectar from flowers of the mint Leonotis nepetifolia flowers as their main food source, but they also feed infrequently on other flower species:Aloe graminicola and Leonotis mollissima during the breeding season, and also Crotalaria species including C. agatiflora, Erythrina abyssinica, Fuchsia species, Ipomoea batatas, Jacaranda mimosifolia, Phragmanthera dschallensis and other pea species."
"I'll tell you what I know", he tells. "The golden-winged sunbird is found in Democratic Republic of the Congo, Kenya, Tanzania, and Uganda, between altitudes of 1170 and 2300 m.

"But there's more", adds Robert. "The serval is active in the day as well as at night; activity might peak in early morning, around twilight and at midnight."
"I don't want to sound too scientific", he remarks. "In North Africa, the serval is known only from Morocco and has been reintroduced in Tunisia, but is feared to be extinct in Algeria.

"The common dwarf mongoose, sometimes just called the dwarf mongoose, is a small African carnivore belonging to the mongoose family.."
"What I can also say", he affirms. "The common dwarf mongoose is a typical mongoose: it has a large pointed head, small ears, a long tail, short limbs and long claws."
"Funny thing is", describes Robert. "The common dwarf mongoose is a diurnal animal. It is a highly social species that lives in extended family groups of two to thirty animals."
"Also", he affirms. "The common dwarf mongoose is primarily found in dry grassland, open forests, and bush land, up to 2,000 m in altitude."<<addToInv "Common dwarf mongoose">><<endif>>

"Interesting animal", he remarks. "In East Africa, cheetahs primarily live on scrub forests, grasslands, savannahs, open fields, steppes and arid environments where preys are available, in which are suitable to be the cheetahs' main hunting grounds.

"Interesting animal", continues 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."
"Interesting fact", he says. "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."<<addToInv "Leopard">><<endif>>

"The Pousargues's mongoose, also known as the African tropical savannah mongoose, is a mongoose native to Central Africa."
"Interesting fact", he suggests. "The Pousargues's mongoose is brown with a grey belly and face. Its tail is bushy, and its front feet have strong claws."
"Fascinating thing", he informs. "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. In 2016, an individual was observed and photographed in Garamba National Park. ."<<addToInv "Pousargues's mongoose">><<endif>>

"Interesting animal", explains 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."

''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.
