Local Wildlife

[edit]

Himalayan Black Bear (Selenarctos thibetanus)

[edit]

The Himalayan Black Bear had been quite common in Marmat until several decades ago when its population experienced a sharp decline due to illegal poaching. These bears are now found in the interiors of the steep forest areas of the Marmat ranges, though very few are believed to be still alive.[2]

Common Langur (Presbytis entellus)

[edit]

Locally known as langur, these animals are frequently found in the forests of Marmat. They inhabit altitudes up to 3,500 meters above the mean sea level. In general, they are more arboreal in habit than macaques. They occasionally pillage gardens and cultivated areas. Langurs live in reasonably large groups of all ages and both sexes.[2]

Koklass Pheasant (Ceriornis macrolophus)
[edit]

The Koklass Pheasant is a species of bird that can be found in Doda, between the Batote and Marmat ranges.[2]
