The
Jalore Wildlife Sanctuary is located on the private lands of Baronet
Balwant Singh Chouhan. The first and only privately owned and
operated wildlife sanctuary in India. These lands of savannah,
scrub and deciduous forests surrounded by Granite Mountains were a gift
from the Royal family of Jodhpur seven generations ago to the Kaniwara
Chouhan family. The Baronet, his sons Ravindra Singh Chouhan and Peeko
Chouhan, Shanane Davis, and Gajendra Singh Chouhan established the
Jalore Wildlife Sanctuary in 2005 to protect this rare eco-system and
its diverse flora and fauna. The Jalore Wildlife Sanctuary connects to a
nationally protected forest with access available only through the
Jalore Wildlife Sanctuary.
The extraordinary rare and endangered fauna of
the Jalore Wildlife Sanctuary consists of Indian Gazelle, Leopard,
Jungle Cat, Asian Steppe Wildcat (Ornata), Desert Zird, Desert Fox,
Striped Hyena, Indian Porcupine, Wild Boar, Blue-Bull Antelope, Desert
Hare, Hanuman Langoor, Eurasian Vulture, Eurasian Eagle Owl, Spotted
Owlet, Ring, Little Brown, Spotted Dove, Crested Bunting, Tawny Eagle,
Rock and Jungle Bush Quail, Large Grey and Jungle Babbler, Plum Headed,
Alexandrine and Rose-ringed Parakeet, Indian Myna, Indian Nightingale,
and another approximately 120 species of resident birds.
The Jalore Wildlife Sanctuary flora mainly consists of Mithijal

Andulaeta), Tribulus Rajasthaninusis, Banyan, Pipal, various wild
savannah grass including Scenia and Dahmun, Thor (Uphorbia
