A wetland ecosystem in a place with high temperatures all year, notably in Rajasthan’s arid and semi-arid areas, is critical for preventing water-related challenges and maintaining ecological balance. Therefore, as an essential home for both resident and migratory bird species, Rajasthan’s Bisalpur Wetland contributes significantly to the biodiversity of birds. This study observed that the majority of bird species at Bisalpur wetland are classified as Least Concern, the existence of Near Threatened and Vulnerable species emphasizes the need for focused conservation efforts, according to the IUCN Red List assessment. Migratory species like the Bar-headed Goose, Common Pochard, and Northern Pintail highlight the wetland’s biological importance as a stopover and wintering location on major migration routes. However, it has been identified that such vital ecosystems are constantly being destroyed as a result of local human involvement. People in the surrounding areas commonly use forest wood for cooking and shelter. Moreover, originating from the construction of a dam on the Banas River, this wetland supports a variety of ecosystem services, including irrigation, fisheries, flood control, and biodiversity conservation. Surrounding villages rely heavily on the wetland for fuelwood, water, and agricultural sustenance, while the site also holds significant cultural and religious value due to its historic Bisaldeo temple. The wetland fosters biodiversity, with a variety of fish, plankton, and avian species enriching its ecosystem. Government environmental bodies are required to take action regarding resource depletion and unauthorized residents in the wetland catchment areas for sustainable management of these precious resources.
