Bull”
The name “Nilgai” means blue cow in Urdu though the females are
yellowish-brown and0nly the bulls are blue-grey. The Nilgai has been
assigned a monotypic genus but it is in most respects a typical
antelope, and is considered quite closely related to the eland of
Africa.
This is savannah-adapted species. The Nilgai is endemic to
Pakistan
and India. The tropical thorn forest, uncultivated semi-deserts of
Pakistan ,mainly occurring around the
India
border in the north eastern corner of the

Tharparkar areas in Sindh from across the Indo-Pak border.It is absent
from Assam, Eastern Bengal or Kerala but still occurs in Uttar Pradesh,
Madhya Pradesh, Rajastan and Kathiawar, as well as the Deccan.
The horns of the male are cow like in appearance, being back,
conical and curving slightly backwards and outwards. These horns,
despite the large size of the animal, generally measure
only15.2-17.8cm(6-7in) though 30cm(11.75in) is on record.

Hog Deer “Para”
Hog deer native to
Pakistan, India,
Indonesia, Thailand, & Srilanka. The Hog Deer is closely related to the
Cheetal (Axis axis). The length of the horn is about 30 to 39 cm. Adult
male stand about 61-71 cm (28-28 in) high at the shoulders. They measure
107-112 cm (42-44 in) from nose tip to root of tail. The tail is about
18-24 cm (7-9 in) long.
The Hog Deer is not a social animal and lives a solitary
existence, although in regions where they are plentiful it is possible
to see several animals feeding in the same vicinity. They oftenly emerge
in small groups to start foraging in the early evening in the region
where they are not disturbed. while running they outstretched their neck
and head held very low.
This posture, together with their size and general
coloration, has no doubt given rise to the name “Hog Deer” because of
their superficial resemblance to fleeing wild boar which are encountered
in the same habitat. The Hog Deer confined to isolated pockets of the
river jungles in the less accessible regions of the
Chenab, Ravi near
Indo-Pak border in the river forests of the
Indus as well as in Bhawalpur, D.G.Khan and Lahore Civil Division.
