Screenshot of expedition report which states "Before leaving Entebbe, the discovery was made, at the eleventh hour, that Ruwenzori and all the country about the foot of the mountains was a " game-reserve," in which no shooting of any kind was permitted, but, after application had been made to the Commissioner of the Uganda Protectorate, special permission to collect was granted to the members of the Expedition."
Doing #ResearchExpedition #Wikidata work contributing to www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidat.... Enriching this item www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q131749... for a @nhm-london.bsky.social affiliated expedition to Ruwenzori in 1905/6. Despite feeling affectionate towards participants am currently laughing at them.
