In India, the type of forest that occupies the largest area is the Tropical Moist Deciduous Forest. These forests are found in areas with rainfall ranging from 1000 to 2000 mm, and have a mix of deciduous and evergreen trees. They are found in areas such as the eastern slopes of the Western Ghats, the Satpura-Maikal ranges, and the Chota Nagpur plateau. These forests are characterized by a variety of flora and fauna, including tigers, leopards, deer, wild boar, and various bird species. They also provide important ecosystem services such as carbon sequestration, soil conservation, and water regulation. However, they are also under threat due to deforestation, fragmentation, and overuse.
