100 subsistence farmers, representing the first third of the Kamdini Cooperative, received their goats recently.
As we previously stated, Kamdini is a particularly neglected area near Gulu, on the edge of Murchison Falls National Park and Budongo Forest (home to incredible families of chimpanzees that we had the privilege of experiencing on our last trip in February, 2013).
Facilitating this community's efforts to better their circumstances will help to ensure the conservation of the wildlife inside this forest and park, especially significant as Kony and the LRA decimated the animal population for food and target practice during their terror campaign.
Here are some photos to mark the occasion.
We look forward to seeing many pregnant females when we visit in October.
