Flora

In the varying from altitudes as low as 200m to as high as 4000m, Bhutan has a very rich species of flora . Forests of alpine scrub, fir, mixed coniferous species, temperate scrub and broadleaf species, many of which are unique to Bhutan, cover an estimated 72% of the Country.  The Bhutan Himalaya is also important source of valuable medicinal plants used in ayurvedc medicine.  The vast wealth of flora is highly appreciated by both Bhutanese and the world outside.

Fauna

Because Bhutan’s forests have remained largely undisturbed, a number of rare animals can still be found in the country, including wide distributions of golden langur, takin and blue sheep.  Tiger, leopard, snow leopard, red panda, gaur, serow, Himalayan black bear, wild boar, musk deer and other types of deer are commonly found in many parts of Bhutan.  Notably, the Phobjikha valley in western Bhutan is one of the global wintering grounds for the rare black-necked crane.  One quarter of the country thus has been declared as protected reserves/sentries/nature parks.
