Lake Mburo National Park in southwestern Uganda is one of the smaller parks of the country, but rich in biodiversity. The park is home to animals such as zebras, elands, buffalos, impala and over 350 species of birds. The lake is an important water source and home to hippos, crocodiles, and various fish species. The park has a rocky history of poaching, encroachment and people being chased off their lands, but nowadays, its main goal is to offer visitors amazing game drives, boat trips, and walking safaris.
