The
Desert National Park is an excellent example of the
ecosystem of the Thar Desert and its rich fauna. The
Sudashri forest post is the most ideal place for observing
wildlife in the Desert National Park. Sand dunes form less
than 20 percent of the Park, which consists of craggy rocks,
pavements and compact salt lake bottoms, intermedial areas
and fixed dunes.
Its
inhabitants include the blackbuck, chinkara, wolf,
Indian fox, desert fox, hare and desert cat.
Flights of sandfrouse start coming to waterholes from
sunrise onwards. One also hear the morning call of the grey
partridge. Blue tailed and green bee-eaters, drongos, common
and bush quail and Indian rollers are birds, which
are commonly found around waterholes. the park is also home
to the great Indian Bustard which is peril of extinction. |
