Come face to face with the chimps as they swing, pant hoot, shout to identify their mates, smack the tree bars, eat, nest, hunt, and exhibit their new nests. This encounter with man’s “cousins” is memorable. During the Chimpanzee tracking adventure, you will see bird species such as the long-tailed cock, among others.
