This type of vegetation is unique in Tanzania and has been supporting a large number of Chimpanzee, Baboons, and a large number of bird species. Other species seen here are colobus, blue and red tail monkeys. A guided walk would help visitors to observe chimps in the deep forest. This is done to reduce the number of visitors in the park. It is advisable that do not visit Gombe if you are unwell.
