Uganda’s Oldest Gorilla Dies At 50

Ruhondeza, one of the oldest silverbacks in Bwindi national parkhas died. It was also the leader of the first group that kick-started habituated gorilla tourism in Uganda.
Believed to have been over 50 years old, Ruhonza was until recently the leader of the reknown Mubare gorilla family whose successful habituation in 1991 kick-started gorilla tourism in Uganda.
