Behali Wildlife Sanctuary is a patch of semi-evergreen forest in the foothills of the Eastern Himalayas, in the Biswanath district of Assam, India, covering about 140 square kilometres. Part of the larger Sonitpur Elephant Reserve and first declared a reserved forest in 1917, it lies between Nameri National Park to its west and Kaziranga National Park to its south, forming an important migration corridor, particularly for elephants; the Governor of Assam proposed its formal declaration as a wildlife sanctuary in 2022. It is also recognized as an Important Bird Area and a Key Biodiversity Area.
