Karisoke Research Center

The visit to Karisoke Research centre was a wonderful visit ever🤗 I got to know more about species of Gorillas and how to differentiate them, they share the story of this legend Dian fossey the American primatologist and conservationist who known for undertaking an extensive study of mountain gorilla groups from 1966 until her 1985 murder.

It is a well organized and more information store for all you want to know about gorillas.

The research center has a small museum that is open to the public. The exhibits are well done and offer insights into the biology, conservation, and social interactions of mountain gorillas. Artifacts from Dian Fossey's life and research are also on display. It is worth your time to stop, and all donations go toward conservation efforts.

Small yet insightful "museum" space... really gives you a background on the primates you might be in search of if you're heading to Volcanoes national park - good coffee house next door as well (Crema)

Karisoke is an amazing place. Want to know more about the famous Mountain Gorillas... This is the right place to go to. The people are very welcoming too.

Researchers for mountainous gorillas, positioned in Musanze town, easy to access ( all facilities available)

It's museum. Also comparison between two apes, man and mountain gorilla. Lots of information.

It facilitates research about human being life compared to gorillas
