  "abstract": "Ornitho-fauna of University of Veterinary and Animal Sciences has been studied from 2009 to 2010, that is one of the oldest veterinary institution in Asia and constitute two campuses. City campus lies within urban congestion of Lahore and Ravi campus that is 80 kilometer towards southwest of city campus. Surveys were conducted from dawn to dusk and nocturnal observations were also made. A total of 123 bird species were observed, 53species from city campus and 70 species from Ravi campus. In the literature the area can possibly have 195 bird species. The reasons why less number of species was observed can be the highly fragmented landscapes at present. Fragmentation that also leads to edge effects, which, when compounded by habitat degradation, may alter the intensity of a number of ecological processes. This study proposes further research that tests the importance of some of these ecological processes in causing the decline and loss of bird species in urban areas. Although management should proceed immediately, including a cessation of any further clearing of native vegetation, it should be conducted in conjunction with research on avifauna and their role in ecosystem. Zoological Survey London it might go extinct in the next",
