Marsh Crocodile:
Marsh (or Mugger) crocodile has been declared an endangered species. Previously,Muggers and Gavials inhabited Nara canal (Old Hakra River) and its tributaries, but after the emerging of thesewetlands through seepage from Nara canal during the early 1950s,
crocodiles have taken refuge in these lakes and are now breeding successfully. Gavial
is now extant from Nara canal and from the wild in Pakistan since 1976. Nara canal has a crocodile population of about 200-250, while the estimated population of crocodiles in
the wetland complex of Deh Akro-II Wildlife Sanctuary is believed to be between 550-600 animals. These crocodiles permanently inhabit these lakes year round. Following are major threats to the crocodile of the area,_ Destruction and degradation of wetland Habitat due to water shortage_ Loss of wetland eco system integrity_ Water scarcity in the wetlands due to long dry spells and also stoppage of seepage from Nara and Jamrau canals_ Left Bank Outfall Drain (LBOD) of the National Drainage Programme of the Government of Pakistan_ Fuel wood collection_ Encroachment over sanctuary lands; and _ Oil and gas exploration activities.
