Limber Wildlife Sanctuary, also called Kazing or Qazing Wildlife Sanctuary, lies at Limber in Baramulla district, Jammu and Kashmir, on the north bank of the Jhelum, about 70 km from Srinagar and close to the Line of Control. It covers 26 sq km and falls within a notified eco-sensitive zone.
The sanctuary exists above all to protect the markhor, a rare wild goat, and is also home to Himalayan musk deer, leopards, brown bears and other wild goats, with some 120 bird species and 20 mammal species recorded. The remote area suffered geo-environmental damage in the earthquake of 8 October 2005.
