Animatronic gorilla takes London by storm

To highlight that Uganda is the best place on the planet to see these amazing creatures, Kamageo introduced a gorilla to the public on the northern edge of the square (in front of the National Gallery) and at the times shown below, sponsored by Africa Exclusive (www.safari.co.uk). It gave lucky individuals the opportunity to create their own ‘David Attenborough moment’ with some iconic British structures in the background. Encountering Mountain Gorillas in the forests of Bwindi has been voted the most desirable wildlife experience in Africa by UK travellers, and excitingly this endangered species is currently enjoying an amazing baby boom, with numbers now approaching 900. That’s a great conservation success and tourism has played a surprisingly important role, causing Rough Guide to declare Uganda as Africa’s No.1 destination in 2017.
