Chukar Partridge is the national bird of Pakistan. The Chukar found mostly in New Zealand and other European countries. Its native habitat is Pakistan, Kashmir, India and Afghanistan. It is closely related and resembles its western equivalent, the red-toed caterpillar, the Electors rufa. Choker is a 32-35 cm long bird, with a light brown waist, grey breasts and a leather belly. The face is white with a black face. It has striped stripes and red legs. When disturbed, it prefers to run rather than fly, but if needed, it flies a short distance on round wings. Bran prefers rocky, steep and open hills. Bran is a dry, open, and often mountainous country.

In the wild, the squirrels travel in groups of 5-40 birds called crows. It has a nest on the scanlap line where 8 to 20 eggs are laid. Bran will be insecure to eat a variety of seeds and some insects. When in captivity, they will lay 1 egg a day during the breeding season if the eggs are collected daily. For predators, the squirrel is a very difficult bird because of its surgical upward flight and sudden disappearance in the bushes.

 

Pakistan is home to some of the world’s rarest and most unique birds due to its diverse climate and diverse terrain. Its wetlands and lakes attract millions of migratory birds from around the world each year, especially to Siberia, which are in their natural habitat in the forests and mountains, in addition to their native birds.

Hunters are only allowed to hunt with a permit or license during the hunting season.

The Chukar Part is considered to be a very difficult bird in terms of its behavior. The chokers usually move in groups and when they are alone, they mostly run instead of flying. In the wild, chokers fly in groups of 40-40 birds, especially in winter. Chicks are individual animals and birds and are responsible for protecting their young during the male breed.

Chokers have an unusual ability to pose a threat and have a clear sound of danger on the ground and in the air. For hunters, Ch is one of the most difficult birds to hunt, hence the name Game bird. Squirrels have the ability to take fast flights and can disappear into the bushes in seconds. They are considered difficult to hunt without dogs.
