Nara Desert Wildlife Santuary

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Nara Desert Wildlife Sanctuary is located in Mirpurkhas District, Sindh, Pakistan.

The Nara desert provides refugee to a large number of wildlife in Sind province. The Nara Canal Area, a chain of some 200 small, permanent and seasonal, freshwater, brackish and saline lakes and marshes stretching for about 150 km along either side of the Nara Canal from Sorah in the north to Sanghar in the south is known to be of great importance for wintering waterfowl and other wildlife, but few surveys and censuses have been carried out, except at a few of the southernmost lakes. The largest population of the endangered Mugger Crocodile in Pakistan is found here. Other animal life includes Jackal, Fox, Pangolin, Honey Badger and Wolf.
