Nyuma yo kubura urukundo mu muryango, yatangiye gutakariza abantu icyizere atangira gushakira urukundo mu nyamaswa.

Ubwo yari afite imyaka irindwi y’amavuko yari afite ifarashi yakundaga cyane nawe ikamukunda. Kuva icyo gihe ngo nibwo urukundo rw’inyamaswa rwatangiye.

Yifuzaga kwiga ibijyanye n’ubuvuzi ariko umubyeyi we ntiyamushyigikira kuko yashakaga ko yiga ibijyanye n’icungamutungo.

Yakomeje guhatiriza yiga ibyo yashakaga anashobora kurangiza amasomo ye y’icyiciro cya kabiri cya kaminuza ahagana mu mwaka wa1954.

Uko yagize igitekerezo cyo kuza muri Africa

Uwari umuyobozi w’Ibitaro bya Louisville, Michael Henri n’Uwari umufasha we bamusabye ko yajya abafasha mu bikorwa by’ubuvuzi bw’amatungo yabo aho bororeraga akajya abivanga no kwita ku barwayi .

Fossey yarabyishimiye cyane maze afatanije n’uwo muryango bajya inama yo kuza gutemberera muri Africa. Yari afite amatsiko yo kubona zimwe mu nyamaswa zaho yarasanzwe abona kuri za tereviziyo gusa.

Amaze kubura ayo mafaranga yagannye banki iramuguriza akabya inzozi ze.

Urugendo rwa Dian Fossey muri Afrika rwatangiriye mu gihugu cya Kenya muri Nzeli 1963. Ageze i Nairobi yahahuriye n’abandi Banyamerika barimo umukinnyi wa filime witwa William Holder na John Alexander bamwinjiza mu bijyanye no gutembera mu mapariki.

Basuye pariki zitandukanye zo muri Kenya, izo mu cyahoze ari ari Zaire, izo muri Zimbabwe na Zambia n’izo muri Tanzania. Banasuye pariki y’Ibirunga ku ruhande rw’u Rwanda na Congo.

Yaryohewe n’urugendo yagiriraga muri pariki zo muri Afurika bituma ahaca ingando mu rwego rwo kuzikoraho ubushakashatsi no kuzivuganira kuko zari zarayogojwe na ba rushimusi bicaga inyamaswa zabagamo.

Yaryohewe cyane n’urugendo yagiriye muri pariki y’Ibirunga mu Kirunga cya Mikeno. Aho niho yahuriye n’ingagi bwa mbere.

Yarazikunze yiyemeza kuhatura azitaho mu buryo bwo kuzikoraho ubushakashatsi, kuzivura no kuzirinda ibikorwa bya ba rushimusi.

Mu bushakashatsi yakoraga ku ngagi yabuhuriyemo n’Umunyamerika witwa Louis Leakey n’Umwongereza witwa John Godall.

Akazi yakoraga ntikari koroshye kuko aho yakoreraga mu cyahoze ari Zaire hari hari umutekano muke waterwaga n’inyeshyamba zari zarigometse kuri Mobutu, bituma n’ibikorwa bye bihagarara aza gukorera mu Rwanda.

Ubwo yabaga mu cyahoze ari Zaire inyeshyamba zaramushimuse zijya kumufungira ahitwa i Rumangabo.

Inkomoko y’izina Nyiramacibiri

Ubwo yari mu Birunga yita ku ngagi ni naho Dian Fossey yakuye izina rya Nyiramacibiri.

Bizumuremyi Jean Bosco utuye ahitwa Bisate akaba yarahoze ari umukozi we ushinzwe isuku, ahuza n’abaturage bo muri ako gace avuga ko iryo zina yaryiswe bashaka gusobanura umugore uba wenyine mu misozi n’ingagi.

N’ubwo mu mwaka wa 1920 mu Rwanda hari haratowe itegeko ryo kudahiga muri Pariki y’Ibirunga, abahigi babirengagaho bagahigamo kubera ruswa babaga bahaye abayoboraga ako gace.

Bizumuremyi Jean Bosco wabanye na Dian Fossey mu mwaka wa 1984 avuga ko abahigi bibasiraga ibyana by’Ingagi bakabishimuta bakajya kubigurisha ku bazungu bashakaga kubyororera mu nzu zororerwamo inyamaswa (Zoo).

Dian Fossey yasanze zimwe mu nyamaswa zirimo inzovu zenda gushira muri iyo pariki kubera amahembe yazo yari imari ku bahigi bari baturiye ako gace.

Dian Fossey yanahanganye n’urundi rugamba rukomeye rwarimo na Leta ya Habyalimana n’ikigo cya ORTPN cyari gishinzwe amapariki n’ubukerarugendo.

Ishyamirana ryaterwaga nuko atemeraga ko ba mkerarugendo baza muri pariki gusura ingagi ngo kuko bashoboraga kuza bakazanduza indwara.

Nyiramacibiri yashoje urugendo rwe ku isi mu mwaka wa 1985 ahitanwe n’abantu n’ubu bataramenyekana, bamutemaguye. Bivugwa kenshi ko urupfu rwe rufitanye isano no kubangamira ibikorwa bya ba rushimusi .

Yashyinguwe hagati y’Ibirunga bya Kalisimbi na Karisoke iruhande rw’Ingagi zabaga zishwe na barushimusi cyangwa uburwayi busanzwe.

Diane Fossey ntiyigize ashaka umugabo nta n’umwana yabyaye. Hari amakuru yavugwaga ko yaba yarakundanye na Bob Campbell wari umufotozi wa tereviziyo ya "National Geographic" ariko ngo byari urukundo rusanzwe narwo rutamaze igihe kire kire.

Ubu iyo aba akiriho yari kuba amaze imyaka 50 ageze mu Rwanda. Nubwo atakiriho ariko bimwe mu bikoresho yakoreshaga biracyahari.

Ibyo ubisanga mu gice cy’inzu ndagamurage y’umuryango yasize ashinze witwa Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund International, ushinzwe kwita ku bikorwa yasize

Muri ibyo bikoresho usangamo intebe yicaragaho, akabati yabikagamo ibikoresho bye, ameza, ingoma yakoreshaga ubwo yabaga ari mu gitaramo n’abakozi be n’abandi bashyitsi, n’itara yakoreshaga nijoro ashaka urumuri mu nzu ye.
