Tours, treks and expeditions!
Real discovery is not in seeking new landscapes...
it’s in seeing with new eyes.

UWA, working with Uganda Police, has dealt a major blow to ivory trafficking after arresting 5 suspects in Bukedea with 106kg of elephant ivory. The intelligence-led operation highlights growing efforts to dismantle wildlife crime networks. Suspects face charges in Makindye court. #WildlifeProtection

The elephant collaring operation across Kidepo and the wider Karamoja–Turkana landscape has been successfully concluded, with 16 elephants now fitted with GPS satellite collars. Their movements are already being tracked in real time on EarthRanger @EarthRangerTech, the protected area management system used by Uganda Wildlife Authority @ugwildlife (UWA).

With data now flowing in, wildlife authorities on both sides of the border can begin to anticipate movements, respond to threats, and plan more effectively for peaceful co-existence between people and elephants across this transboundary landscape.

This was no ordinary deployment. It required meticulous planning, tight coordination and long, intense days. We extend our thanks and congratulations to everyone who made this possible: the UCF Veterinary & field teams, UWA Veterinary, management and operations teams, our partners at Northern Rangelands Trust @NRT_Kenya, Save the Elephants @ste_kenya, Wild Landscapes International @wild_landscapes, Kenya Wildlife Service @KWSKenya, Kenya Wildlife Research & Training Institute, and Tropic Air @TropicAirKenya and the Mara Elephant Project @MaraElephant for their vital aerial support. This activity was partly funded by the European Union @EUinUG NaturAfrica programme.

This collaring is not just about elephants, it’s about restoring and protecting the delicate balance between nature, people and progress. This achievement belongs to the people of the Kidepo region who have long shared their home with elephants and continue striving for peaceful co-existence, even as shifting land use patterns and emerging pressures have increased the risk of conflict in recent years.

With collaring teams now safely back at their posts across Kampala and Kenya, the focus shifts to monitoring, analysis, and action. UCF’s Conservation Technology team remains in Kidepo to support UWA’s team as they deepen the integration of EarthRanger into all aspects of operations across the park.

Uganda is home to over half of the world’s remaining Rothschild Giraffes! That makes our role ever more so critical!

At Uganda Conservation Foundation, we work alongside Uganda Wildlife Authority @ugwildlife and partners to protect their habitats by constructing strategically located ranger posts and supporting the Veterinary Unit for rapid emergency response. We train and equip rangers for effective patrols and law enforcement, and support logistics and operations. We also conduct surveys and research to inform long-term giraffe protection.

Once reduced to fewer than 200 individuals, Uganda’s giraffe population is now rebounding, thanks to years of deliberate, consistent conservation.

Giraffes are more than just lofty and beautiful animals, they are keystone species.

They are keystone species; their browsing shapes vegetation, their movement disperses seeds, and their presence supports entire ecosystems.

When we protect giraffes, we protect entire ecosystems.

Happy World Giraffe day!
