The Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Uganda Tourism Board (UTB), Ms Juliana Kagwa, has hailed the leadership of Uganda Wildlife Authority (UWA) and congratulated them on the successful translocation of Rhinos to Kidepo Valley National Park.
She said the translocation is not a conservation milestone but also a powerful restoration of Uganda’s natural story.
The Uganda Wildlife Authority (UWA) recently translocated two rhinos to the above park as part of a carefully managed plan to reintroduce eight rhinos back into the wild.
“Warm congratulations to the team at Uganda Wildlife Authority (UWA) under the leadership of Dr. James Musinguzi, on successfully translocating Rhinos to Kidepo Valley National Park. The translocation of the first two rhinos – part of a carefully managed plan to reintroduce eight into the wild – is not just a conservation milestone. It is a powerful restoration of Uganda’s natural story, a reminder of what is possible when vision meets commitment. As stakeholders in tourism, we celebrate this bold step toward enriching our wildlife offering and strengthening Uganda’s position as a destination of choice. Uganda’s tourism is rising and this is what progress looks like. #ExploreUganda,” Juliana Kagwa said.
