End of the Patrol

Category: Out on Patrol | Date: Apr 27 2007 | By: admin

And so we reached the end of our patrol in Djuma.

We were truly honored to have Paul with us, and with the findings of more okapi traces in the area as well as the start of discussions with the chief of the local pygmy tribe, it was a very positive experience. Also, when we made our way through the forest it was great to know that it was with the support of all those from around the world who are concerned about Virunga’s future. And for this I would also like to thank my sponsors at Happy Hollow Zoo as well as all the others who have made donations to our work. This patrol was thanks to the money that has come in and we hope that we will be able to have many more in the future.

Thank you everyone, this is a great beginning to a new chapter here in Congo.

Thank you Heather, we are truly entering a new era here in Virunga and it is great to see such results so quickly.

It is an absolute pleasure to be sharing this with you, as without your support these kind of results just would not be possible.
