Black partridge is one of the unique species of birds that is found in Pakistan. This bird is famous for its high-pitched chirping sound and is usually found in interior Sindh. But, it is now vanishing fast from its habitat due to natural and manmade reasons. 
Keeping black partridge in rural Sindh and suburbs of Karachi has been a favourite hobby for many people. Some keep them in their homes as pets, while some people keep them for gambling purposes. 

In Pakistan, Black partridge chirping competitions are also held in which thousands of people take part. They bring their birds in the competition where they chirp from sunrise to sunset and the most melodious of them wins and the prize is then given to its owner. If it stops chirping earlier during the show, then it looses the game. 
Farhan Wagan, a young professional, who lives in Karachi, has kept few black partridges at his small residence. “It is my hobby since my childhood to keep these birds just to entertain myself with its unique chirping. I do not keep these birds for its meat. If one bird dies, I get upset and try to get another one from my home village Nawabshah,” he said.
Wagan said that this bird can eat boiled eggs, pieces of cooked meat, meal and other items if there is no grass leaves of grains. While in the wild, it survives on insects, leaves of plants, grains and green grass. 

He said that many people believe in a myth that if someone keeps a black partridge at home then he will be saved from evil forces or bad omen. 
He added that male black partridges live alone. They only join the females in the breeding season, which starts from April and lasts till June. During mating, the female partridge flies to a male and lays eggs in the nest. When the chicks hatch, the female partridge shifts them to another place because the male partridge usually kills the new hatchlings. 
Project Director Sindh Wildlife Department Hussain Bux Bhagat said that presently the
Population of black partridge is on the decline due to natural and manmade reasons. Besides its hunting, the farmers use pesticides and poison grains and grass, which this bird eats and dies instantly. This unchecked practice has affected the population of this beautiful bird badly, wiping it out from the natural wild. 
Now in the entire country (Pakistan), only Nara Game Reserve is being considered the only natural habitat of this species. Otherwise, its population has vanished from other areas in Pakistan. 

Bhagat said that increasing population, neglect of ecological factor in development works and unchecked hunting has badly affected the abode of these birds. But, he said that use of pesticides in crops and the bird’s beauty itself are its enemies. 
He informed that in order to catch this bird, the poachers use a technique. First they spot an area where they guess availability of more partridges of the same species. Then they keep a black partridge in a cage surrounded by bushes and install small nets at the entrance of the cage. When the partridge sitting in a cage starts chirping, other partridges get attracted towards the sound and get trapped in the nets.
