 Discover the unique culture of the remote tribe of the notorious, cattle-herding karamojong whose main livelihood is herding livestock which has the social and cultural importance. . Crop cultivation is a secondary activity, undertaken only in areas where it is practicable . Due to the aridity of the region, they have always practiced a sort of migratory herding where they move their livestock to the neighboring regions for water and pasture for their animals. The distinct feature of Karamojong society is their age system, which is strictly based on generation, with successive generations, there is an increasing overlap in age leading to logical breakdown of the system. Their traditional marriage is very distinctive whereby as a ritual requirement for engagement, a young Karamojong man is required to wrestle the woman he desires to marry. If he is successful in winning the wrestling match against the woman, he is now considered to be a man and is permitted to marry the woman. T

Spotted hyena s are known for their "laughs and usually make the noise during social conflicts. Many people compare hyenas to dogs, but are much more like cats and classified as cat-like carnivores. Hyenas are very social and live in groups called clans. Clans can have up to 80 members. The spotted hyena females are not only larger; they are also more aggressive and dominate in their clans. All females rank higher than males in the clan. However, in other families hyenas have male-dominated clans. The size of the meal often is determined by how large the hyena's clan is. Clans work together to take down prey, so the bigger the animal, the more members the clan needs to have for a successful kill. They often hide extra food in watering holes, since nothing is wasted. Hyenas will eat every part of an animal, including bones and hooves Matting only happens outside of the clan. Non-related males and females will mate after a courtship that can last several days. After a g

Monuments are one of the most important tourist attractions in a destination, mainly because they represent a significant historical event hence worth exploring during safaris and Uganda is a home to number of them. One of the  most historical monuments in Uganda is the 1520 AD Total Eclipse that occurred across the Southern Sahara. Along the Masaka- Mbarara high way before reaching Mbarara Town  where you easily spot the exceptional Biharwe Monument nestled on Biharwe hill. Its appearance resolves around the scramble for power in Uganda and Africa in general and it so happens that some powerful kingdoms in Uganda such as Bunyoro-kitara(Bachewzi) came to an end. It then became the key benchmark that was used by historian to determine the royal genealogies of those kingdoms. It also stands on 3 pillars representing the three realms and kings of the time(Bunyoro under Omukama Olimi Rwitamahang 1).Buganda Kingdom(ruled by Ssekabaka Nakibinge Kagali) and Ankole (under Omugabe Ntare

Banded mongoose gets their cute name from the highly visible dark stripes or bands that run down the entire length of their back. They are very sociable and live in groups of 40 individuals. These helps them in many ways like, when attacked by predators and also, makes it easier to collect more food. It’s ideal home is an old, disused termite mound because it has many entrances and exits, and with this they never feel trapped in and have plenty of air holes. These quite nomadic little creatures, like to move around from place to place. They never spend more than three or four days in any one place. If they can’t find shelter they form into a tight group with all their heads facing outwards. Banded mongoose can be seen eating ticks off warthogs, which also indicates a mutual-benefit between the two. The warthogs get cleaned and the mongoose gets to eat. Once the pups are old enough to look for food themselves, they are individually cared for by an escort who teaches the pup ho

The warthog is one of spotted attractions in most Ugandan National Parks.Given its facial appearance, the warthog  doesn't count among the world's most physically beautiful animals, yet it is a tourist attraction, nevertheless.with its tail standing , it proudly runs through the Savannah grasslands of the park. They are cousins to pigs and they are more cheerful than the conventional pig and present a much different appearance. Warthogs sleep & rest in holes, at times they line with grass, perhaps to make them warmer. Although they can excavate, warthogs normally do not dig holes, but use those dug by other animals.The outstanding features on these wild pigs are their 4 sharp tasks that sit on the head of sparse hair, on the sides and in-between  the eyes.The tusks also act as defense tools when they are attacked. They appear strong & sharp that they would easily penetrate human skins. Warthogs are humble & disciplined but by nature, they like kneeling, sitting
