Who just passed our camera… and paused like they knew they were being watched? 👀
A chimpanzee family moving with strategy: leader scouts ahead, signals, then the group follows.
Where are they going… and how do they all just trust the signal?

The forest is about to speak 🐦🌿
Tomorrow, @ECOTRUST_Ug joins birders around the world for #GlobalBigDay in Budongo Forest, turning every bird sighting into action for conservation.
Every bird counts. Every checklist matters.

👀 Who just passed our camera? (Night edition)
Spotted: one very sneaky, tail-swinging visitor under the cover of darkness. 🌙
Any guesses what this is?
Wrong answers are also welcome 😄

Conservation doesn’t start in offices.
It starts in communities. 🌿
From planning solutions to monitoring biodiversity, communities have always led the way.

👀 Who just passed our camera?
Our community-installed camera traps picked up these curious visitors… and one of them even stopped to look straight at the camera. Just looking.
Chimpanzees? Something else?

Booth set. Conversations started. 🌍
We’re live at the Business of Conservation Conference in Nairobi, showcasing how communities are leading biodiversity action.
If you’re here, find us. Let’s talk conservation that works.
#BusinessOfConservation#BCC2026
Wildlife is more than what we see roaming in parks.
On Wildlife Day, we recognise medicinal and aromatic plants that sustain health, heritage, and livelihoods.
When communities conserve these vital resources, biodiversity and wellbeing grow together.
#WorldWildlifeDay2026
Some runs are about medals.
This one is about legacy.
On 1st March at 7:00 AM, we’ll be at the @ugwildlife Half Marathon, running to educate children of the fallen rangers.
Catch us at the starting line.

Checkout our report from last year’s field surveys of one of Uganda’s endemic birds— the Fox’s Weaver!
We confirmed new northern range records, found 12 nests, and even recorded 15 Karamoja Apalis, extending their known range.

60s of lung silence for 60s of gold. After a long survey in Kidepo, the Karamoja Apalis—Uganda’s endemic gem— finally stepped into frame. I steadied my BMPCC 6K + Sigma 150-600, held my breath. Worth every tremor! 🎥🕊️
