Umhlahlandlela we-Gorilla Safari we-Rwanda, u-Uganda ne-DR of Congo
Njengoba kuphela ama-gorilla asezintabeni angama-900 asele emhlabeni, ukuwabona endle kukhona abantu abambalwa abazobe nethuba lokuzwa. Lesi sigaba sizokutshela ukuthi ungabona amantombazane asezintabeni, ukuhlala kuphi, ukuthi ubiza kangakanani, futhi akusize ukhethe inkampani engcono kakhulu yokuhamba nayo.
Ungayibonaphi I-Gorilla Yezintaba?
Ama-gorilla angama-480 asezintabeni ahlala esifundeni esiphezulu se-volcanic esibizwa ngokuthi i-Virunga Range emaphethelweni eRwanda, Uganda naseDemocratic Republic of Congo ( DRC ) e- East Africa .
Amanye ama-gorilla angama-400 noma ayizintaba ahlala endaweni eseduze yeBwindi e-Uganda, ihlathi elinamandla.
Uganda
Kukhona amapaki amabili e-Uganda, i-Mgahinga Gorilla National Park kanye ne-Bwindi Impenetrable National Park lapho ukwazi khona ukulandela i-gorilla. Chofoza lapha ukuze ubone ibalazwe lapho amapaki akhona khona.
I-Mgahinga itholakala ekhoneni elingasenyakatho-ntshonalanga ye-Uganda emithambekeni yezintaba zeVirunga. Iphethe i-DRC neRwanda. Ipaki ihlanganisa amamayela angama-28 ngakho-ke kuncane kakhulu, kodwa ngaphandle kwamakhola ungabona futhi ingwe, i-buffalo, i-bushbuck nezinkawu zegolide.
I-Bwindi iseningizimu-ntshonalanga ye-Uganda futhi ihlala cishe engxenyeni yazo zonke izintaba zezintaba. Ipaki ihlanganisa amamayela angaba ngu-200 wehlathi elinemvula kakhulu futhi liyisayithi elibizwa ngeGugu leMhlaba. Ingxenye yomnandi wama-gorilla wokulandela lapha uzama ukuwalandela ngamahlamvu aminyene. Ungase futhi ufike ubone izinkukhu kanye nokuphila kwezinyoni ezimangalisayo.
U Rwanda
I-Rwanda inepaki eyodwa eNyakatho yezwe equkethe isabelo sayo se-gorilla ye-mountain: i-Virunga National Park noma i- Parc National des Volcans (PNV) . Ipaki ihlanganisa indawo engaba ngamakhilomitha angama-46 ubude futhi ihlanganisa izintaba-mlilo eziyisithupha. Naphezu kohlanga olubi kakhulu ekuqaleni kwawo-1990 ilizwe lizinzile futhi isimiso sokuvumela ipaki sihamba kahle.
I-PNV yilapho uDian Fossey eyakha khona isisekelo sakhe nesikhungo socwaningo. Ama-gorilla wokulandelela ku-PNV ayenzima kakhulu kunaseBwindi kusukela ama-gorilla ahamba kancane kancane. Indawo evulekile kakhulu ibuye ivumele ukukhanya okungcono kwamathuba amafoto angcono kuneBwindi. Hlola isipiliyoni sami sokulandelela i-gorilla eRwanda.
Republic of Democratic Republic of Congo
I-DRC ibuye ibe nengxenye yepaki ye-Virunga Mountains ebizwa ngokuthi i-Parc National des Virunga. I-DRC yabantu base-DRC bahlukunyezwa ngoba ama-gorilla amaningana ahlukumezwe ngo-2007. Ukuze bathole ukuthi izingozi zemidlalo zibhekana kanjani nesimo nezinkinga ababhekana nazo, funda amabhulogi abo. Ngonyaka wezi-2012 ukubalwa kwabantu kubonisa ukuthi ama-gorilla enza kangcono kunalindelekile naphezu kwempi yombango egijima nxazonke kuwo ngenxa yemizamo emangalisayo yezingozi ezibeka ukuphila kwazo emgqeni waseVirunga National Park. Ngo-2014 uMqondisi wepaki wadutshulwa wabaqamekele, kodwa wasinda futhi waqhubeka nomzamo wokulondoloza ipaki kusuka ekuhambeni okuhlukumezekayo ensimini yabo kanye nezinkampani zamafutha ezifuna ukuthola amalungelo okumba. Buka i-documentary enhle kakhulu ye-"Virunga", etholakala ku-Netflix ngokuningi.
Qaphela:
Ama-Gorilla azungeze i-Virunga National Park.
Ngo-Mashi 2005 kwabikwa ukuthi iqembu le-gorilla ehlala eceleni e-Uganda lepaki liye lathuthela eRwanda (ama-tastier bamboo shoots mhlawumbe). Phakathi nango-2009 bebuyile. Izinkampani ze-Safari ezisebenza kule ndawo zigcina ithrekhi yazo zonke izinhlobo ze-gorilla futhi zizokwazi ukuthi amaqembu ajwayele aphi.
I-Gorilla ye-Mountain Tracking
Ukubona ama-gorilla akulula, futhi awuqinisekisiwe ukubona. Uhambo oluya lapho amaqembu e-gorilla ehlala khona athatha khona uhlaza obunzima kakhulu, uphakamise imithambeka ephakeme futhi ungapheli amahora amaningana. Izimila ezinomdabu zigcwele izinhlanzi ezivuthayo nezikhukhulayo, ngakho-ke ukugqoka amagilavu kuwumqondo omuhle. Izintuthwane ezibomvu nazo zivamile, ngakho-ke gqoka amasokisi amade ukuze uthathe izibhulu zakho. Ama-Gorilla azungeze ngakho akuzona zonke izinto ezilula ukulandelela. Ama-gorilla ozobe uhlangana nawo ajwayele abantu ukuthi yingabe uyakwazi ukusondelana nabo.
Iminye imithetho eyisisekelo yokulandelela ama-gorilla afaka:
- Kumelwe ube neminyaka engaphezu kwengu-15 ubudala
- Ngeke ugule noma unesifo esithathelwanayo
- Ihora elilodwa kuphela kuvunyelwe ngama-gorilla futhi kufanele ugcine ibanga elingenani ngamamitha angu-5
- Inombolo enkulu yezivakashi ngosuku liyi-6-12 abantu ngabanye
- Awekho izithombe ze-flash ezivunyelwe
- Abakwa-Trekkers kufanele bafanele futhi bahlome kahle, okufaka izingubo ezifudumele zezulu ezipholile ezikhuphuka ezintabeni.
- Akukho ukudla noma ukuphuza eduze nezindawo ze-gorilla
- Akukho othinta ama-gorilla (nakuba angase anqume ukukuthinta)
- Akukho ukukhomba ama-gorilla
Izimvume ze-Gorilla
Udinga imvume esemthethweni ephathwe yizikhungo zokuhlola wonke ama-gorilla. Ngokujwayelekile, kufanele uthole lezi zinyanga eziningana kusengaphambili. Uma uhamba nohambo uzohlelwa wena.
E- Uganda , kubiza i- USD 750 ngosuku ngosuku lomuntu ngamunye ngomvume we-gorilla ngenkathi ephakeme. Ngenkathi ephansi imvume ibiza u-$ 500 ukulandelela ama-gorilla phakathi nezinyanga zikaMashi - Meyi no-Okthoba - Novemba. Ungathola izimvume eKampala (inhloko-dolobha yase-Uganda) ehhovisi elikhulu lase-Uganda Wildlife Authority (UWA). Kungenzeka ukwenza ukubhuka ngamazwe ngama-permits usebenzisa i-imeyili eqondisa i-UWA kodwa abamukeli amakhadi esikweletu ukuze kuthole kancane. Bona iwebhusayithi yabo ukuze uthole imininingwane eyengeziwe. Ukwenza kube lula, ungakwazi nje ukuthenga uhambo lwakho lonke lwe-gorilla ngokusebenzisa inkampani ekhethekile, njenge-Gorilla Trekking noma iVolcanoes Safaris.
E- Rwanda , ungathola izimvume emahhovisi e-Rwanda Tourism Board (ORTPN) eKigali noma eRuhengeri (eduze kwePNV). Ungabiza (250) 576514 noma 573396 noma i-imeyili ku-reservation@rwandatourism.com. Izimvume zibiza u-USD 750 ngomuntu ngosuku. Iningi labantu lizothola izimvume zabo ku-opharetha wezokuvakasha okukhethekile ngokuhamba nge-trekking. Kunzima ukuthola imvume ngaphandle kokubhuka ngesikhathi esifanayo. Ngesikhathi ngiya eGrailla ukulandela eRwanda, izimvume zathengiswa izinyanga ezine kusengaphambili, ngakho-ke bhala ikakhulukazi uma uhlela ukuya phakathi kukaJuni no-Okthoba.
E- DRC kungcono ukuhlela nje imvume yakho (USD 400) bese uvakashela enye yezinkampani ezibalwe kusayithi le-Virunga Vakashela i-Virunga. Zizophinde zifinyelele ekuvikelekeni kwamanje epakini. Ungahlanganisa ukuvakashelwa kwakho nge-chimpanzee trekking kanye ne-amazing volcano trek.
Nini ukuya
Ungakwazi ukulandelela ama-gorilla nganoma yisiphi isikhathi sonyaka, nakuba inkathi yemvula ivame ukwenza ukuthi izindlela zibe nzima kakhulu ukuhamba. Izinkathi zemvula ziyi- March-Ephreli no- Okthoba-Novemba .
Indlela Yokuthola Lapho
Izinkambo eziningi zizofaka izithuthi ezivela eKigali eRwanda noma eKampala e-Uganda. Uma ufuna ukuhamba ngokuzimela kukhona ezinye izinketho ezitholakalayo.
Ku-National Park Bwindi engenakwenzeka
Amabhasi omphakathi agijima (cishe) nsuku zonke esuka eKampala kuya eBogogota edolobheni eliseduze nomnyango wepaki. Kuthatha cishe amahora ayishumi. Indawo yakho yokugcina yi- Buhoma futhi kuzodingeka ubambe itekisi e-Butogota ukuze ufike lapho.
KuMgahinga National Park
Idolobha elikhulu ngaphandle kwepaki yeMgahinga yiS Kisoro (namakhilomitha angu-6 aphuma epaki HQ.) Ukufika eKisoro kumele udlule eKabale . Kuyindlela elula, elula esuka eKampala kuya eKhibale (cishe amahora angu-6-8 ngebhasi). Kusuka eKhibale kuya eKisoro uzobe ushayela emgwaqweni ongenamaphutha kakhulu. Ikhamphani yebhasi ye-Horizon isebenza amabhasi amabili ngosuku ukusuka eKampala ukuya eKisoro.
Ku-PNV eRwanda
Ukufika e-PNV eRwanda kungaba idrayivu yamahora amathathu ukusuka enhloko-dolobha yaseGigali . Idolobha laseRuhengeri lisemnyango wepaki. Ungabamba amateksi amancane amabhasi noma uqashe itekisi evamile.
Ku-Virunga National Park e-DRC
Ipaki ibhekene namamitha angu-20 ngaphandle kweGoma, inhloko-dolobha yesifundazwe saseNorth Kivu. Kungumgwaqo onzima kakhulu, ngakho-ke kungcono ukuhamba nomuntu owazi kahle indawo futhi uvakashele, hlola ama-Amahoro Tours.
Ingqalasizinda yezokuvakasha ayithuthuki kahle njengaseRwanda nase-Uganda - bheka imininingwane eminingi ngokuvakashela iVirunga e-DRC.
Uzohlalaphi
Iningi le-gorilla safaris lizofaka indawo yokuhlala, kodwa lezi zixhumanisi ngezansi zizosiza labo abahamba ngokuzimela futhi bakunike nomqondo walokho okutholakalayo.
Lolu hlu alukwazi ngokuphelele. Ngangihlala eVilunga Lodge eRwanda, kwakuyinto emnandi kodwa ayikho enye yabahambi bebhajethi.
Amahhotela nezindawo zokuhlala
- I-Kinigi Guesthouse, Rwanda
- Virunga Lodge eRwanda
- Indawo yaseBwindi e-Uganda
- I-Bhoma L odge eduze nehlathi le-Bwindi elingenakunqotshwa
- Ikamu eliseMantana elisezingeni elihle eliseningizimu e-Bwindi
- Mount Gahinga Lodge, eMgahinga National Park, e-Uganda
- Kunamahhotela amaningana nezindawo zokulala ezikhona eK Kisoro (ngaphandle nje kwepaki kazwelonke yeMgahinga).
Amakamu nama-Bandas
- Kunezindawo eziningi zamakhamera kanye neBasas (indawo yokuhlala elula) ngaphandle kwepaki eBwindi, e-Uganda.
- I-Red Chilli Camp yase-Mgahinga ne-bandas etholakalayo ne-bar enamanzi.
- I-Rugigana Valley Campsite Izohlela ukuthutha eRwanda naseMgahinga yokulandela i-gorilla.
I-Safari Tours nezindleko
Iningi le-gorilla safaris lizohlelwa kusengaphambili ngoba imvume yokubona ama-gorilla avinjelwe kakhulu. I-gorilla yami ephephile yahlelwa yi-Volcanoes Safaris, futhi yayiphelele, ngiyayincoma kakhulu. Kunezivakashi eziningi zokuvakasha eKampala naseKigali abahlinzeka ngefarisi yangasese ye-gorilla futhi bazoba nezimvume zangaphambi kokubhuka ezitholakalayo. Iningi lamahotela kanye nezinye izindawo zokuhlala emasimini amabili kuzohlinzeka ngezinkambo ze-gorilla.
I-safaris ye-Gorilla ivame ukuhlanganiswa ne- chimpanzee safaris e-Uganda noma njengokungeza kwi-"safari" evamile emathafeni avulekile.
Izinketho zokuvakasha
- Izinketho ze-gorilla nezinsuku zama-chimpanzee e-Virunga (eRwanda) nase-Uganda yi-Volcanoes Safaris
- Izinketho eziningi ze-Gorilla zokuhamba ngezinyawo e-Uganda naseRwanda nge-Wild Frontiers
- Ukuhamba kwe-Gorilla e-Uganda naseRwanda nge-Gorilla Tours
- I-gorilla yokuhamba ngezinyawo eRwanda nase-Uganda yi-Primate Safaris
Ama-gorilla ase-Lowland yiwona ama-gorilla ozowabona kuma-zoos emhlabeni jikelele. Nakuba kunama-gorilla amaningi ase-lowland (inani lamanje elingaphakathi kwama-50,000) kunama-gorilla asezintabeni, ukuwabuka endaweni yabo yemvelo akulula kakhulu. Ukuthola ama-gorilla ayejwayele abantu kubonakala kunzima ezindaweni lapho i-poaching yayiphelile. Kwakukhona impumelelo e-Lossi Gorilla Sanctuary eRiphabhliki yaseCongo kodwa ngo-2003 cishe bonke abantu babulawa ngenxa yegciwane le-ebola.
Imibiko yakamuva (ngo-Agasti 2008) ibonise ukubukeka okuphawulekayo uma kutholakala ama Gorilla angaphezu kuka-100 000 ezweni. I-Gabon ibonisa ukuthi iyindawo enhle kakhulu ezayo ukuyobuka ama-gorilla asezintabeni zasendle, namanje ayesekude kodwa ufanele uhambo.
Ungayibonaphi I-Gorland Ephansi?
IRiphabhlikhi yaseCongo ne-DRC
Kukhona amapaki amabili esifundeni saseCongo lapho ama-gorilla angabonakala khona. I-gorilla yasempumalanga yasempumalanga inomdlandla kakhulu kune-gorilla yasentshonalanga yezintambo futhi izinombolo zazo zichitheka ngokushesha ngenxa yokuzingela kanye nokulwa kwempi esifundeni. I- gorilla yasempumalanga yasempumalanga ingabonwa ku-Kahuzi-Biega National Park (e-DRC). Leli paki livela ukuthi liye lahlupheka ngokukhulu kakhulu kusukela empini ehlomile eqhuma futhi evulekile kule ndawo iminyaka eminingi manje. Ukuze uthole ukwaziswa okwengeziwe ngokusiza i-Kahuzi-Biega National Park ibone i-Born Free, isizwe sase-UK sokuvikela ukuvikela izilwane zasendle, kanye ne-blog ka Kahuzi-Biega.
I-Odzala National Park (eRiphabhlikhi yaseCongo) yindawo yabantu abakhulu kakhulu be- gorilla yasentshonalanga . Isimo sempi yombango e-DRC kanye nokusondelana kwamapaki eGabon kwenza kube lula ukufika eGabon. Yona ipaki kuphela lapho ungabona khona ama-gorilla ohlaza ovulekile. Kukhona amakamu angu-5 anamathele azungeza epaki amanye awo afinyeleleke ngesikebhe.
Lokhu nakanjani ipaki okufanele uvakashele neqembu lokuvakasha , ukuze uthole kalula ukuhamba. Ukuhlangenwe nakho kwangempela kwe-safari uma ngabe kunomunye.
IGabon
I-National Park ye-Ivindo intsha futhi indawo enhle yokubona ama-gorilla asezintabeni. Akukahleleki, kepha ungahlala eLoango National Park eliseduzane. Ama-gorilla ayengasetshenzisiwe ngokuxhumana nabantu lapha ngakho-ke afinyelela kalula. Ipaki libuyele eminye imifula emangalisayo.
I-Loango National Park ibonisa ama-gorilla ogwini oluncane. Lesi silungiselelo esiyingqayizivele senza kube indawo ekhangayo kakhulu . Kunezinketho eziningana zokuhlala ezifaka indawo yokuhlala, amabhangi kanye namakamelo asebhishi azungeze ipaki.
I- travelogue yakamuva kulezi zikhungo ezimbili zifunde lokhu kusuka endaweni yesigodi saseNew York.
Cameroon
Kukhona amapaki amabili ongabona ama-gorilla ase-lowland eCameroon. I-Korup National Park ehlanganisa ihlathi elikhulu lemvula kanye neLac Lobeke National Park. Kukhona ulwazi oluncane kakhulu lwezivakashi kulezi zindawo, kodwa hlola iwebhusayithi yeBerggorilla ukuze uthole ulwazi mayelana nokulondolozwa kule ndawo.
