Born to Explore With Richard Wiese

Uganda: Mountain Gorillas

Season 1, Episode 19 of 26

Deep in the heart of Uganda lies the Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, one of the world's last refuges for mountain gorillas. Richard Wiese joins a group of trackers as they come face to face with these extraordinary elusive creatures. He meets a tribe of Batwa Pygmies, who lived amidst the gorillas in the Bwindi Forest. He finds out how these people have adapted to a new life in the village after moving out of the forest to save their primate neighbors.
