Batwa pygmies lived in the forest with animals thousands of years ago. They were fruit gatherers & hunters. Batwa were removed out of the forest by the Government of Uganda who made Bwindi a National park so as to promote tourism.  The Batwa which an even stretch to a daylong affair takes place in a patch of a private forest contiguous with the National Park.
