Daying Ering Memorial Wildlife Sanctuary

Daying Ering Memorial Wildlife Sanctuary is a riverine wildlife sanctuary located on a cluster of river islands formed by the Siang and Sibia rivers near Pasighat in East Siang district, Arunachal Pradesh. Established in 1978 and named after former parliamentarian Daying Ering, it covers about 190 sq km of alluvial grasslands and swamp forests. It is notable for its population of wild water buffalo, deer, elephants and seasonal migratory birds including cranes and waterfowl.

Visitors can expect a remote river-island sanctuary accessible only by country boat from Pasighat. The landscape consists of flat alluvial grasslands, swamp forests and wetlands surrounded by the Siang River. There are no paved trails inside; exploration is by boat and guided walks on grassland tracks. Visitors can see wild water buffalo, hog deer, elephants, and a variety of resident and migratory birds, with basic forest department watchtowers and rest house facilities.
