Tufted Grey Langur

Gray langurs are terrestrial, inhabiting forest, open lightly wooded habitats, and urban areas on the Indian subcontinent. Most species are found at low to moderate altitudes, but the Nepal gray langur and Kashmir gray langur occur up to 4,000 m (13,000 ft) in the Himalayas.

They are often ignored in the wild as common. But they play a very important role in maintaining the balance of Spotted deer numbers in the wild. They alert the Deer and other mammals from the arrival of Tiger/Lion from the tree tops. It is a very uniquely shared co-relation between the two.

To learn more about our Indian Biodiversity join us on our next camp.

Antelopes & Deers - Gir - 2013-2018

Antelope and deer are two umbrella terms that refer to a great number of different animals. Many types of antelope share a resemblance with deer. They are both quadrupedal mammals that can have antlers and horns on their heads. They’re herd animals, and they’re all known for being speedy and skittish.

The major differences between an antelope and deer include their size, antler morphology, and range. The largest antelope species are larger than the biggest deer species, capable of reaching heights of 9ft in height and 2,000lbs in length. Deer are smaller than antelope, standing about 4ft tall and weighing a maximum of 900lbs.

The antlers of a deer are more intricate than those of an antelope since they branch and have many points. Antelope actually have horns instead of antlers, but they do not branch out so they usually only have two points on their entire head.

Deer have a larger range than antelope, too. Deer can be found on every continent except Antarctica.
Antelopes have horns and deer have antlers.
Antelope keep their horns throughout the year, but deer lose their antlers every year for the most part. The horns of an antelope grow continuously, becoming larger throughout their lives.

We hope you enjoyed reading the fact and you will share this with all you know.

To learn more interesting facts about the biodiversity around you join us on one of our camps this summer.

Asiatic Lion - Gir - 2013-2017

The Asiatic lion, also known as the Persian lion, is a population of Panthera leo that today survives in the wild only in India. Since the turn of the 20th century, its range has been restricted to Gir National Park and the surrounding areas in the Indian state of Gujarat. Historically, it inhabited much of southwest Asia to northern India.

The Asiatic lion differs from the African lion by a less developed mane. In Saurashtra's Gir Forest, an area of 1,412.1 km2 (545.2 sq mi) was declared as a sanctuary for Asiatic lion conservation in 1965. This sanctuary and the surrounding areas are the only habitats supporting the Asiatic lion. After 1965, a national park was established covering an area of 258.71 km2 (99.89 sq mi) where human activity is not allowed. In the surrounding sanctuary only Maldharis have the right to take their livestock for grazing.

Male Asiatic lions are solitary, or associate with up to three males, forming a loose pride. Pairs of males rest, hunt and feed together, and display marking behaviour at the same sites. Females associate with up to 12 females, forming a stronger pride together with their cubs. They share large carcasses among each other, but seldom with males. Female and male lions usually associate only for a few days when mating, but rarely live and feed together.

Join us on our next Gir Jungle Camp to learn more about these endemic Species to India. Camp in June and bookings are open until 15th April 2023.

Endemic to the Indian subcontinent where it can occur in any well-wooded area outside NE India and the high Himalayas. Similar to the largely non-overlapping Blossom-headed Parakeet, but shows a darker shade of plum or gray on the head and a white-tipped tail (not yellow).
