Day in the Life of Kidepo’s Wildlife Scouts

Dedicate a couple of hours on your visit to Kidepo Valley National Park to learn about the community-led conservation initiatives taking place around the park.

Engage with volunteer community scouts as they skilfully demonstrate methods of deterring animals from damaging community gardens and provide insights into their wildlife management techniques.

See first-hand how they deal with situations involving elephants and learn about the various tools they use, such as catapults, whistles, canisters, vuvuzelas and the banga, all of which contribute to the effective protection of both people and wildlife.
