After years of conservation and recovery, Uganda has re-emerged as a premier destination for hunters seeking a wide array of species many of which are found only in East Africa. With a mix of lush savannahs, wetlands, and rolling highlands, Uganda is a land of natural beauty and extraordinary biodiversity. For hunters, it provides the opportunity to pursue Nile buffalo, Ugandan Kob, and Ssese Island Sitatunga, among many others, in pristine wilderness.
