Journey into the heart of the East African wilderness by exploring three of Uganda’s famed national parks and making an invaluable contribution to protecting these animals. Discover Corps offers this unique experience where you trek with a veterinarian to assist in the collection and lab analysis of gorilla data from stool samples and learn more about the vital preservation work being done by the Gorilla Conservation Camp.

Over ten days, we will immerse ourselves in the natural world with overnight stays in stunning safari lodges with excursions into a series of Ugandan wildlife reserves. Animal encounters will include tracking and observing chimpanzee families in their natural habitat, spotting elephants, leopards, and buffalo on game drives, and
coming face-to-face with rare tree-climbing lions - a rare breed of lion only found in two places in the world - as you track them with a local conservationist.

In addition to safari experiences, we will enjoy authentic cultural experiences, from visiting the children at a rural community school to learning basket-weaving from women involved in a local charity project.
