Forest Buffaloes are a commonly seen wild animal for the kids we work with in Kinigi – a place bordering the national forest. In the wee hours of the morning, the buffaloes leave the protected area of Volcanoes National Park to graze in the community land. So it may be that our students don’t fully embrace these animals, but it is also important for us to examine their own unique part of the ecosystem.

Here’s a video of our classroom lesson surrounding the forest buffalo with Eric teaching in Kinyarwanda and Innocent’s English translation.
