The Yawal Wildlife Sanctuary is a protected area located within the Yawal Tehsil of the Jalgaon district of Maharashtra, India, at the banks of the Anner and Manjar rivers and at the border of Madhya Pradesh.[2] The sanctuary covers an area of approximately 176 km2 (68 sq mi) and is characterized by its extensive dense forest coverage.[3]

The area was officially recognized as protected in 1969.[4] Deforestation and tree smuggling led to significant habitat degradation starting in the early 2000s.[5] The local government, indigenous groups, and several environmental organizations have worked to reverse the damage.[6] Organizations such as Lok Sangharsh Morcha (LSM), or the People’s Struggle Front,[4] have worked to ensure conservation of the region. The sanctuary is gradually recovering.[3]
