FORESTS & WILDLIFE
FORESTS
: Which grow where temperature and rainfall are plentiful to support a tree
cover. Depending upon these factors, dense and open forests are grown.
Tropical Evergreen Forests
These forests are also called tropical
rainforests (Fig. 6.3). These thick forests
occur in the regions near the equator and
close to the tropics. These regions are hot
and receive heavy rainfall throughout the
year. As there is no particular dry season, the
trees do not shed their leaves altogether.
This is the reason they are called evergreen.
The thick canopies of the closely spaced
trees do not allow the sunlight to penetrate
inside the forest even in the day time.
Hardwood trees like rosewood, ebony,
mahogany are common here.
Wildlife- rosewood, mahogany, ebony
Elephants Monkeys Lemur Deer
Tropical Deciduous Forests
Tropical deciduous are the
monsoon forests found in the large
part of India,northern Australia
and in central America (Fig.
6.4).These regions experience
seasonal changes. Trees shed
their leaves in the dry season to
conserve water. The hardwood
trees found in these forests are sal,
teak, neem and shisham.
Hardwood trees are extremely
useful for making furniture,
transport and constructional
Tigers, lions, elephants, langoors and monkeys
are the common animals of these regions
Wildlife
Temperate Evergreen Forests
The temperate evergreen
forests are located in the
midlatitudinal coastal region
(Fig. 6.7). They are commonly
found along the eastern
margin of the continents, e.g.,
In south east USA, South
China and in South East Brazil.
They comprise both hard and
soft wood trees like oak, pine,
eucalyptus, etc

Temperate Deciduous
Forests
As we go towards higher
latitudes, there are more
temperate deciduous forests
These are found in the north
eastern part of USA, China,
New Zealand, Chile and also
found in the coastal regions of
Western Europe. They shed
their leaves in the dry
season. The common trees are
oak, ash, beech, etc. Deer,
foxes, wolves are the animals
commonly found. Birds like
Wildlife- oak, ash, beech, etc.
Deer, foxes, wolves
Coniferous Forests
In the higher latitudes (50° – 70°) of
Northern hemisphere the spectacular
Coniferous forests are found These are
also called as Taiga. These forests are
also seen in the higher altitudes. These
are the trees which Salima found in the
Himalayas in abundance. They are tall,
softwood evergreen trees. The woods of
these trees are very useful for making
pulp, which is used for manufacturing
paper and newsprint. Match boxes and
packing boxes are also made from
softwood. Chir, pine, cedar are the
important variety of trees in these
forests. Silver fox, mink, polar bear are
the common animals found here.
Wildlife- Chir, pine, cedar are the important
variety of trees in these forests. Silver fox,
mink, polar bear are the common animals
