Description
During Dr. Charles Vogel’s career in oncology in Uganda, there were many safari trips in which he and his family were able to view indigenous wildlife such as elephants, zebras, and various species of antelope roaming freely in their natural habitats. As mentioned by Dr. Vogel himself, “One of the animals seldom seen was duikers, a very small forest antelope much less than half the size of our Dobermans. They were seldom seen on safari since they lived in the forest and were well camouflaged.” Furthermore, during his time off at the Uganda Cancer Institute, Dr. Vogel and his colleagues would visit safaris to gain personal insight into the variety of wild animals present from the open grasslands to the lush forests. Additionally, Dr. Vogel’s time in East Africa brought him into contact with avid fishermen, leading to a series of memorable fishing excursions, as captured in the video. Through aerial views of dense greenery and magnificent mountain ranges, viewers are able to observe the breathtaking sights seen by Dr. Vogel during his residence and explorations across East Africa.
