Bhutanese Wildlife

Physically, Bhutan can be divided into three zones: Alpine Zone (4000m and
above) with no forest cover; the Temperate Zone (2000 to 4000m) with conifer or
broadleaf forests; and the Subtropical Zone (150m to 2000m) with Tropical or
Subtropical vegetation. Ensuing its wide range of altitude and climate,
compounded by its 72 percent forest cover, the flora and fauna of Bhutan is
diverse and rich. If you want to learn more about the wildlife of Bhutan or you need help writing an essay on such a topic from the essay service on the https://essays-service.com/ site and in addition to quality paper, you will get great content about the extraordinary nature of Bhutan.
