Jawai Bandh Leopard Conservation Reserve is a protected conservation reserve located in the Sumerpur tehsil of Pali district in the Indian state of Rajasthan. It was formally notified on February 2010 to safeguard the region’s unique cave-dwelling leopard population. The reserve, covering an area of 19.79 sq-km, takes its name from the nearby Jawai Dam which was constructed in 1956-57 by the Rajasthan Water Resources Department. The reserve’s terrain consists of granite outcrops, caves, scrubland and river valleys, providing natural retreats for leopards and other fauna.
