Flora And Fauna

The natural Flora and Fauna get impacted by the diversity of soil types and climate.

Hamirpur's climate is affected by monsoon.so  has a monsoon climate, so there are majority of intensively deciduous forest. As we already discussed that Hamirpur comes in plain area including some southern part.

80% part of Hamirpur's Plain sub-region, there is practically no forest land.However, very little  forest remains in Hamirpur today, only in the middle area like Beri, Bajehta, Kudra and Bhedi ganj. Less than 8% of the land is notified as forest land And wild animals have become a rare sight.

In plain sub-region areas of Hamirpur districts, along the banks of rivers like Betwa and Yamuna, we see acacias like babul and khair, palas, ber, tendu, mahua, semal and kardhai. 

while Hamirpur's southern part contains Bushes type vegetation  which include Babool, Karaunda, and plum.

Another very useful tree for people living around forests is mahua. It is an important source of food and livelihood for people living in and around forests.

sometimes Jackal, Peacock, wanrojh, monkeys, Neel gaay, wild pig and wild cat are seen.

A wide range of fish is found in Hamirpur's rivers, including species known locally as rahu, bhadur, mrigal, tingar, singahi, mangur, awda, baam, sooja, sinni, padheen and mahasir.

The Forest are disappearing as it is facing high pressure from the growing human population living in which removing firewood illegally. Forests and scrub lands are intensively used by to source firewood for consumption and sale.Also cattle is generally left loose to graze around the borders of the notified reserve resulting in degradation of the forest cover area.
