About Kumbhalgarh
Wildlife Sanctuary
Kumbhalgarh is just 90 kms. from Jodhpur on the Udaipur - Pali -
Jodhpur road. This jungle adjoins the historical Kumbalgarh Fort and
used to shield the fort from invaders. Now it protects the rare
species of animals, struggling for their survival. Situated in the
lush green region of Udaipur, Kumbalgarh is the only sanctuary of
Rajasthan, where activities of the rarely found wolf can be seen. More
than forty wolves inhabit the Joba area of the sanctuary. During
summer, when water becomes scarce, pack of wolves roaming around water
holes is a common sight. |
