Abohar Wildlife Sanctuary

The Abohar Wildlife Sanctuary encompasses 0.384 square kilometers of protected land, providing natural habitats for numerous indigenous and migratory bird species.

The Indian government established this protected area in June 1977 to safeguard local wildlife populations and create a dedicated space for conservation efforts.

Local communities surrounding the sanctuary maintain nature-focused traditions through educational programs and initiatives focused on wildlife preservation and environmental responsibility.

The sanctuary welcomes visitors throughout the year, with guided tours available for observing the 217 different bird species that inhabit the protected grounds.

During monsoon season, the sanctuary transforms into a roosting ground for approximately 8000 foreign birds, including Grey Herons and Painted Storks.
