The marshy Runn of Kutch and its surrounding desert area in Sindh is one of the most potential habitat for numbers of animal and birds in the province. This area is known to be a breeding ground for flamingoes and staging ground for pelicans, cranes, storks, and many species of waterfowl and also important site for animals like wild ass, Blue bull, chinkara, and desert wolf, which have been sighted regularly.
