The small town of Zainabad, 105 km northwest of Ahmedabad, is very close to the Little Rann of Kutch - the barran expanse of ‘desert’ (actually salt plains), which divides Gujarat’s western region of Kutch from the rest of Gujarat. Zainabad is a house of wild Ass. The Asiatic Wild Ass i.e. Gudkhur are found only in the Little Rann of Kutch. Besides the Wild Ass animals like the Blue Bull i.e. Nilgai, Chin Kara, Black Buck may be easily spotted. Then there are carnivores like the Wolf, Jackals, Foxes, Jungle and Desert Cats. Zainabad and the Little Rann are rich in the population of migratory birds too. There are the Flamingos that throng the marshes and the cranes that add life to the desolate Rann. The bird watcher's paradise Zainabad has a large number of waterfowl, waders, raptors and ground birds such as Larks, Sand grouse and the endangered Hubara Bustard. In all over 300 different species of birds may be spotted here. This is the home of the rare Indian Wild Ass and the Hubara Bustard. Tucked into the western edge of India, the Rann of Kutch is more famous for its natural salt plains.
