A study on grey goral (Nemorhaedus goral) was conducted in the Margalla Hills National Park (MHNP) to determine its distribution and population status. They were confined to the steep slopes and difficult terrain. They were usually found very close to the ridges. Presently, 28% of total park area is occupied by goral and 21% of the park area has similar habitat, but without any goral occurrence there. Among 40-60 animals living in the park, it was observed that 72% were adults and 28% were juveniles. Juveniles were accompanied by adults on 80% occasions and sex ratio was near 1:1.
