 Inhabits arid areas, including sand
deserts, flat plains and hills, dry
scrub and light forest.
 Ranges from sea level to 1,500 m
in Pakistan (Habibi 2001a).
 They are facultative drinkers, and
so can live in very arid areas.
 They sometimes raid fields
cultivated with rape seed
(Brassica napus) and sorghum in
desert regions (Habibi 2001a).

20. Indian flying fox (Pteropus giganteus ).
Habitat
 Lives in large colonies of
hundreds to thousands of
individuals on large trees in rural,
urban areas, and close to
agricultural fields (S. Molur,
Project PteroCount).
 It feeds on fruits and flowers,
both wild and cultivated.
 A single young is born between
April to early June.
 It travels long distances, up to 150
km, at night in search of fleshy
berries.

21. Siberian weasel (Mustela sibirica ).
Habitat
 It is found in deciduous, coniferous
and mixed forests, as well as open
areas with small patches of forest
and forest steppe along river
valleys, and occasionally above the
tree line in the mountains (V.
Dinets pers. comm. 2015).
 Breed in farmland landscapes.
 Apparently attracted by the high
rodent density.
 It feeds on small mammals, such as
voles, squirrels, mice, and pikas,
on amphibians, fish, and carrion.

22. Indian striped hyaena (Hyaena hyaena)
Habitat
 Found in open habitat, light thorn bush,
arid to semi-arid environments (Hofer
1998, Alam 2014, Wagner 2013).
 They avoid open deserts, and dense
thickets and forests.
 It has been recorded to 3,300 m in
Pakistan (Roberts 1977).
 Striped Hyaenas are sometimes found
close to dense human settlements .
 Hyaenas are unafraid of humans and
frequently forage on garbage and
carrion near to human habitation.
 Young animals are even kept as pets in
some areas.

23. Hog deer (Axis porcinus)
Habitat
 Found in habitat consisting of wet or
moist tall grasslands, highest densities
in floodplain grasslands.
 It avoids closed-canopy forest, but will
use coastal grasslands (e.g., Peacock
1933).
 it also takes herbs, flowers, fruits and
browse (young leaves and shoots of
shrubs.
 It is much more a grazer and less a
browser.
 In some areas it seems to have become
more nocturnal and solitary.
 When more Hog Deer are together, they
do not form a strong "unit“.
 Gestation period is 220 to230 days.

24. Dhole (Cuon alpinus)

reportedly ranged from 23-199 km.

 The Fishing Cat is strongly associated
with water bodies, marshlands
constituting tall bed-forming graminoid
species like the reed .
 The Fishing Cat is largely nocturnal.
 It is a dietary generalist consuming a
variety of prey such as murid rodents,
birds and fish (Mukherjee 1989, Haque
and Vijayan 1993, Adhya 2015).

 Assuming 12 years as the average life
span of the Fishing Cat in the wild and
the Age at First Reproduction (AFR)
around 1 year.

26. Mouflon (Ovis orientalis) Habitat
 It is found in grasslands, agricultural
fields and woodland areas.
 Herbivorous, feeding on grasses and
shrubs, and also grains.
