The
Desert National Park is an excellent example of the ecosystem of the Thar
desert and its diverse fauna. Sand dunes form around 20% of the Park. The
major landform consists of craggy rocks and compact salt lake bottoms, intermedial
areas and fixed dunes which are quite suitable for the chinkara to move at
high speed. The blackbuck is another common antelope of this region. Its other
notable inhabitants are the desert fox, Bengal fox, wolf and desert cat.
Sudashri forest post is the ideal place for observing the wildlife of Desert
National Park and is the most suitable in the entire 3162 sq. kms. of this
park
for watching and photographing the activities of the animals from behind cover.
Birdlife
in this sandy habitat is vivid and spectacular. Birds such as the sandgrouse,
partridges, bee-eaters, larks and shrikes are commonly seen. Demoiselle crane
and houbara arrive in the winter. The birds of prey seen here are tawny and
steppe eagles, long legged and honey buzzards, falcons and kestrels. But the
most outstanding of the avifauna is the great Indian bustard. This tall, heavy
bird is an epitome of confidence and grace. It is good to see five or six
bustards near Sudashri water hole.
