Uganda Wildlife Authority has released information about the birth of twin gorilla babies a few weeks ago at Bwindi Gorilla National Park. The newborns are part of the Nkuringo gorilla group, whose dominant male had passed away earlier in the year before a new ‘silverback’ emerged as undisputed leader. The group is reportedly being monitored by veterinary staff of UWA to ensure the well-being of the gorilla babies and to assist them as much as possible to see them through maturity in a few year’s time.
This a rare situation and the authorities are doing all their best to make sure that these twins will celebrate many birth celebrations. 2 years ago it happened in Rwanda and it was more publicized. Uganda tour industry heavily depends on gorilla tracking . Gorillas safaris are the back borne of Uganda tourism industry and when such twins are borne it assures the world of more Uganda safari to increase.
