- Dosai National Park - The Last Sanctuary
The Deosai National Park is located in Skardu Gilgit-Baltistan province, in northern Pakistan. Deosai is accessible from Skardu District in the north and the Astore District in the west. Deosai means 'the land of Giants'. The park is located on the Deosai Plains of the Gilgit-Baltistan geographic region. Deosai is a tourist attraction and lot of tourists who visit Baltistan go to Deosai as well. Deosai Plateau which is the second highest plateau in the world after the Chang Tang in Tibet. In local Balti language, Deosai is called Byarsa, meaning ‘summer place’. The plateau is located at the boundary of the Karakorum and the western Himalayas.
Deosai - Sheosar Lake
Deosai Lake, or Sheosar Lake from the Shina language[citation needed] meaning "Blind lake" (Sheo - Blind, Sar - lake)[citation needed] is in the park. The lake, at an elevation of 4,142 metres (13,589 ft), is one of the highest lakes in the world. Its length is 2.3 kilometres (7,500 ft), width 1.8 kilometres (5,900 ft) and average depth 40 metres (130 ft). It is located near the Chilim Valley on the Deosai Plains.
Wildlife
The Deosai National Park was established in 1993 to protect the survival of the Himalayan brown bear and its habitat. Having long been a prize kill for poachers and hunters, the bear now has a hope for survival in Deosai where its number has increased from only 19 in 1993 to 40 in 2005. During the last decade, a few but effective measures have been taken by the Government of Pakistan for the survival of brown bear in the region. In 1993, Himalayan Wildlife Project was founded with a substantial financial support from international environmental concerns. But the brown bear is still under threat.
The Deosai Plains are also home to the Himalayan ibex, red fox, golden marmot, gray wolf, the Ladakh urial, the snow leopard, and over 124 resident and migratory birds. Birds in the park include the golden eagle, lammergeier, griffon vulture, laggar falcon, peregrine falcon, kestrel, sparrowhawk and snowcock.

Yes, we all love our land and our country and our Gilgit-Baltistan. But let's not forget the message of the video. Deosai plains and its resident wildlife are in danger because of irresponsible human activity. We need to spread awareness and help preserve it before it is too late and we lose this treasure.
i don't understand way people does parties in park they were eating like they are in some marriage partey really very sad if some one visit he or she must care for nature. our people need education for this.

most Welcome every time in Pakistan
The largest population of Himalayan brown bears are now found in The Great Himalayan national park in Himachal Pradesh,India
It is very hard to understand how these nomads come to this remote area from the plains of Punjab covering huge distances, risking their own lives as well as of their animals. Do they really come from Punjab, or is it just an allegation? These Gujjars may have once lived in Punjab, maybe their ancestors used to live there.
