About
The Musakhel District in Balochistan is home to two unique mammal species, particularly known for their rarity - Suleiman Markhor and Afghan Urial. Accessible primarily by 4x4 vehicles due to the region's rugged terrain, these animals reside within this district but are best observed during specific seasons: March through April or September until October. The Koh-e-Sulaiman range offers steep cliffs where sightings of both species can be most promising at dawn.
