The Ishasha River forms part of the border between Uganda and the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) in southwest Uganda, flowing into Lake Edward. It's particularly significant as a wildlife corridor, connecting Uganda's Queen Elizabeth National Park with the DRC's Virunga National Park. This allows for the movement of various animal species, including elephants and the famous tree-climbing lions, making it a crucial ecological link within the broader Greater Virunga Landscape. The river and its surrounding plains are a vital habitat for diverse wildlife.
