Pakistan is endowed with a rich variety of native animals and migratory birds. Its varied topography and climate accommodate a great range of fauna. To preserve the nature and wildlife, there have been several areas declared as national parks in Pakistan. In these parks there are great chances to see the animals & birds in their natural environment.
There are several kinds of birds and animals in Pakistan with the following few worth mentioning: The Brown Bear, Common Otter, Alpine Weasel, Stoat, Lynx, White-toothed Shrew, Persian Wild Goat, Sand Fox, Sand Cat, Gazelle, Fishing Cat, Hog Deer, Pangolin, Rhinoceros, Leopard Cat, Grey Goral, Barking Deer, Wild Goat, Ibex, Markhor, Wild ***, Himalayan Beer, and several kinds of Sheep.
In the list of birds, apart from native species, one can watch several migratory birds while participating in this program. Being situated on one of the major routes from Central Asia and Siberia known as the Indus Fay Way No. 04, Pakistan is an important haunt for migratory waterfowl.
A number of lakes, ponds, marshes, canals and rivers make an ideal wetland habitat for the waterfowl and offer excellent harbour to a large variety of migratory population during each winter. Haleji, a lake near Karachi has been declared as Wetland Bird Sanctuary while Keenjhar in Sind, Ochali in Sakesar and Chasma are just a few of the many important places. Some birds likely to be watched en-route are Flamingoes, Sea Gulls, species of Duck, Whimbrel, Egrets, Jacana, Eagle, Herons, Falcon, Koonj, Whimbrel, Goose, Cormorat, Hubara Bustard, Sandgrouse, Bee Eater, King Fisher and many others.
Due to the drastic contrast in climatic weather, we have categorized our tour in two parts, the winter for the southern part of the country and the summer for northern areas.
