Trophy Hunting in Gilgit -Baltistan:

Trophy hunting in Gilgit-Baltistan is a contentious issue, drawing both criticism and support. On one hand, the region boasts a rich diversity of wildlife, including iconic species like the Marco Polo Sheep, Ibex, Markhor, and Snow Leopard, among others. These animals are not only a source of pride but also crucial for the ecosystem's health.

To preserve these species, the Gilgit-Baltistan government, in collaboration with local communities and international organizations, has established various conservation measures such as National Parks, Game Sanctuaries, and Game Reserves. Additionally, the government has designated twelve community-controlled hunting areas, where trophy hunting is permitted under strict regulations.

­ 

The trophy hunting program aims to provide economic incentives for wildlife conservation through sustainable management practices. Revenue generated from trophy hunting is reinvested into conservation efforts, benefiting both the local communities and the preservation of biodiversity.

­ 

However, trophy hunting remains a controversial practice, with concerns about its impact on animal populations and ethical considerations. Critics argue that it can lead to overexploitation and disrupt natural ecosystems. Therefore, it is essential for trophy hunting to be carefully managed, with strict quotas and regulations in place to ensure the long-term sustainability of wildlife populations.

­ 

Overall, while trophy hunting in Gilgit-Baltistan may have its detractors, when managed responsibly, it can contribute to both conservation efforts and local livelihoods, striking a delicate balance between economic development and environmental protection.

День 5

День 6

Trophy Hunting - Khunjerab National Park

will be spent in the KVO game area for Himalayan Ibex Trophy hunting. Trophy hunting is a time taking process which needs a lot of patience and expertise. 


Khunjerab National Park, spanning across 2,271 square kilometers from the Khunjerab Pass to Shimshal, holds a significant conservation role. Established in 1975, its primary aim was the preservation of the endangered Marco Polo sheep population, which faced the threat of extinction. Additionally, the park serves as a sanctuary for a diverse range of wildlife, including the elusive Snow Leopard, Ibex, Tibetan Wild Ass, Bharal, Wolf, Red Fox, Brown Bear, Cape Hare, and Alpine Weasel.


Due to its vital conservation mission, the park currently restricts trekking activities to prevent disturbance to its inhabitants, particularly the vulnerable Marco Polo sheep. This cautious approach is crucial in safeguarding the delicate balance of the ecosystem. The significance of this measure is underscored by the restricted habitat of species like the Tibetan Wild Ass, which now occupies only the area east of the Shimshal Pass near the Chinese border.


While some species, such as the Brown Bear, face dwindling numbers, others like the Snow Leopard and Wolf exhibit comparatively healthier populations within the park. Although the presence of Lynx and Wild Dog is suspected, a comprehensive survey is yet to confirm their residency.


Khunjerab National Park stands as a testament to Pakistan's commitment to wildlife conservation, serving as a refuge for endangered species and a haven for biodiversity. Through careful management and preservation efforts, it continues to uphold its role as a vital ecological treasure in the region.
