What is Velavadar known for?
It is the site of Blackbuck National Park, a rare protected grassland established in 1976. It is famous for large herds of blackbuck antelope, Indian wolves, striped hyena, and one of the world's largest winter roosts of migratory harriers.
Are wildlife sightings guaranteed?
