Chinkara Mating Shot near Bhigwan - Nov 2023 The grasslands surrounding Bhigwan are mostly private and face an ongoing threat as predominantly private lands are increasingly repurposed for commercial use. Within these private patches, the enchanting Chinkaras flourish. This species, known for its extreme shyness, graces these landscapes. On a fortuitous day during our drive through the grasslands, I was fortunate to witness the elusive Chinkaras engaging in mating behaviour. Swiftly capturing the moment with my camera, I managed to immortalise this fleeting encounter before they vanished from sight.
