Haleji Lake is located in Thatta District, Sindh, Pakistan. It is the Asia's largest bird sanctuary. Haleji Lake Wildlife Sanctuary is an artificial freshwater lake with fluctuating water levels, fringed by brackish seepage lagoons and supporting abundant aquatic vegetation. One of the most important breeding, staging and wintering areas for waterbirds in southern Pakistan, supporting between 50,000 and 100,000 birds annually, including Dalmatian Pelican, European Wigeon and Black Coot. Thousands of Black-crowned Night Heron roost in the area. As many as 223 bird species have been recorded in the environs of Haleji lake. For instance, osprey, Pallas's fish eagle, Buzzards, Harriers, falcons, Wigeon, coot, shoveller, pintail, Teals, Mallard, heron, Jacana, flamingos and some times Bewick's swan.

The Mugger Crocodile (Crocodylus palustris) (literally "Crocodile of the marsh"), also called the Iranian, Marsh, or Persian Crocodile (in Persian گاندو *****), is found in South Asia. In Pakistan's coastal regions of the Makran and delta marshlands of Sindh it is known as the Indus Crocodile. In Sindhi it is called WAHGU.

​

Two otter species exist in Pakistan: the Smooth coated otter (Lutrogale perspicillata sindica) and the Eurasian or common otter (Lutra lutra). The Eurasian otter occurs in the northern mountainous region while the Smooth coated otter occurs in the Sindh, Punjab Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Province of Pakistan (Roberts, 1997; Khan et al., 2009). A few reports of hunters also show the existence of the Smooth coated otter in Balochistan (pers. comm.; Mr. Faiz Mohammad, a local conservationist). The sub-species found along the Indus River has been referred as the “Sindh otter” (Lutrogale perspicillata sindica) by Pocock (1940).
