    I wonder how many Zoochatters have seen a pangolin in the wild? That should be your main goal.

    My main goal is to:

    1. See a shoebill and
    2. See more birds this year than Chlidonias

    Pangolins are a rarity encountered by very few, but I would be stoked if I did get to see one.

    And now that I've arrived in East Africa, you can read all about it in http://www.zoochat.com/1679/hix-does-uganda-pt-2-unfinished-384568/

    :p

    Now that a Tanzania forum has been created, the above link will no longer work properly as the thread has been split. I've renamed the threads appropriately:

    For Hix's original trip to Uganda, go to this thread:

    http://www.zoochat.com/1679/hix-does-uganda-part-i-all-330394/

    For his return to Uganda, go to this thread:

    http://www.zoochat.com/1679/hix-does-uganda-part-ii-unfinished-392376/

    For his trip to Tanzania, go to this thread:
