Description

Rwanda Chimpanzee Tracking

The 3 Days Rwanda Chimpanzee Tracking Safari takes you on a thrilling adventure of tracking chimpanzees in their natural habitat, as they swing from the branches in the canopy high above the forest floor. Though they can be difficult to spot, you will be in no doubt of their presence as the forest is alive with their noisy calls. The chimpanzees are considered to be man’s closest relative, sharing 98% of the human DNA.

It is extremely interesting to see some of their human mannerisms; they can be taught how to use basic sign language and are found to be amusing. Chimpanzees socialize like us and express themselves through displays where they intimidate others to show dominance, scream and stamp their feet.
