Hidden in a remote region of Trans-Himalayan Ladakh Suru, a green and fertile valley. The slopes are lush, in stark contrast to the high snow-capped mountains, the foothills of the blue sky! The valley is famous for the Nun (about 7150 m) and Kun (c. 7050 m) summit, which many climbers consider each year. Kun peak is separated from the sister of the north by a plateau covered with snow. Agriculture is the backbone of the people. The lush agricultural fieldsterminated by willows and poplars. Blooming wildflowers on the slopes of the mountains, meadows and pastures without inhibition, promotion of the glory and charm of the valley. Many rare birds and elegant as the rose of willows Finch Squat sing.
One day, karma, and I made a trip to the state of wildlife in the Suru valley evaluated. The rocky road from Kargil is the beauty of the valley. The road can get in really bad shape, with many potholes in the road. The road isnothing more than fatigue, which I think is a blessing, because it makes people stop occasionally to stretch and enjoy the scenery. The locals believe that widespread corruption is responsible for the poor state of infrastructure in the valley. The lower valley of the Suru is relatively broad and intensive care. The glacier-fed Suru River, a tributary of the Indus, is often swollen with water beige in the summer when the glaciers melt in the heat of the sun.
TheThe people of the region are Muslim Shiites believe that after the death of the Prophet Muhammad, the leadership must be passed directly to his cousin / son-in-law, Ali, unable to believe the Prophet's companions, in contrast. The people of Suru Valley to an ethnic group of tribal Darden, particularly among Muslims in Afghanistan, parts of northern Pakistan and India. The faith of the people is countless mosques with interiors decorated with posters of Ayatollah Iranian exemplified.Call of the muezzin booms from loudspeakers on the minarets of the mosque echoed in the valley.
The Suru Valley is a paradise for birdwatchers. Hundreds of birds, migratory and resident species recorded from the area. The agricultural fields, lawns and bushes provide ample resources for rare birds such as eagles and Rubythroat Firecapped Tit Birds are the most common Golden Eagle, Chough, chukar Patridge, ravens and Pigeon. However, there is lessVariety of mammals in relation to Suru Changthang, the eastern part of Ladakh. The most important mammals in this region are the snow leopard highly endangered, Tibetan wolf and red fox, large herbivores such as mountain goats Asian booty, marmots and hares.
There is little reliable information about its size and distribution of these animals in this part of Ladakh. The Department of Wildlife is broken and seems to be a serious lack of awareness of conservationThe locals. People and ignorance of the authorities' indifference and the wildlife in the region is indicated by a sign with pictures of wild animals, a Walia ibex, a wild goat occurs only in the mountains of Ethiopia Semien emblazoned included. Hunting seems to be common in many places and wild animals continue to serve as an important source of protein for humans.
The decrepit road slowed our journey and we achieved Sankoo until late at night. Sankoo is afairly large village, 42 km from Kargil. We stayed at the Tourist Bungalow, which has been rebuilt, and has been relatively clean and hygienic. The doorman of the building was also an excellent cook, and we pamper our taste buds for a few days. The rooms have balconies with views over the River Suru.
The next day, a red fox came Hadji Lift chicken complain. He took us outside and showed the hole on the edge of a farmField. Springs in the vicinity of the cave was littered hajjis witness problem. When we returned to the bungalow, two foxes slunk away from a bush. Later, we sent a mesh of chicken and roll iron bars fox on a fence for the birds make.
After examining hajjis fox problem, we have a trip to a valley called karts, where a large statue of Buddha carved on a rock. There is also a building in ruins on a cliff near a small village. Rock-carved Buddha statues are very oftenalong the path of Buddhist missionaries who traveled from India to Central Asia. La Chamba Mulbek in the village Mulbek on the road to Kargil from Leh, is one of the best known of these.
In the afternoon we made a trip to Umba Valley, the other side of the valley of the Suru river left. The newly paved road has been our driving less stressful. A road is built through the valley of Drass, the negative impact could have on wildlife in the region. We explored the grassyTrails for mountain goats, cows, but could be seen everywhere. The ibex was pushed up the rock shelters. According to the locals frequent the lower slopes in winter, when the upper receive covered with snow. We also could see small mammals such as rabbits and marmots. Locals for Bihari road workers indiscriminately kill marmots fill their food mentioned.
There was no survey of wildlife in the Suru valley. Given the sadState of the animals in the area, it is essential, intensive investigations of research on these animals was followed by launch. The Department of Wildlife must be revitalized in this way that the laws of conservation can be implemented. One of the main reasons for non-functional status of the Department of Wildlife Conservation is due to lack of awareness of the local population. When they realized how important the survival of these animals for ecosystem services, wouldurge the government to revitalize the department for the welfare of wild animals, the environment and the people again.
