Volcanoes National Park supports in excess of 70 mammal species in its various alpine and sub alpine habitats. Of these the mountain gorilla is the most well –known, but the bamboo forests are a critical habitat for another equally range-restricted and endangered primate, the golden monkey. Black fronted duiker and bushbuck inhabit the bamboo forests, while the track and faeces of both buffalos and elephants are commonly seen here as well.

The eerie, bizarre screeches of the southern tree hyrax can be heard after dark in certain seasons and even golden monkeys and buffalo have been recorded as occasional vagrants from the nearby national park. In due course, as the natural vegetation matures, it is speculated that other species such as Carruther’s mountain squirrel, Gambian giant-pounced rat and brush-tailed porcupine to regenerating forests a round Volcanoes National Park and the neighboring communities.
