Wildlife in the district is protected by the wildlife wing of the West Bengal Forest Department.[27] The fauna found in Darjeeling includes several species of ducks, teals, plovers and gulls that pass Darjeeling while migrating to and from Tibet.[31] Small mammals found in the region include civets, mongooses and badgers.[32] The nearby Jaldapara Wildlife Sanctuary consists of semi-evergreen and sal forests. Animals found here include the one-horned rhinoceros, elephant, tiger, leopard and hog deer, while the main bird species include the Bengal florican and herons.[27] As of 2009, work was in progress for setting up a conservation centre for red pandas in Darjeeling.[33]
