Abstract
Suitability of habitat of Cheer pheasant (Catreus wallichii) was assessed by conducting intensive surveys in Margalla Hill. It was found that suitable habitat lies in the lower parts of subtropical pine forests and upper parts of transition zone where grassy terraced cliffs are found, which constitute the northern ridge of the Hills. Although most of the best cheer pheasant habitats are mostly disturbed by human activities, yet the habitat along the ridge is ideal and will remain so.
