Answer:
India is the world's 8th most biodiverse region with a 0.46 BioD score on diversity index, 102,718 species of fauna and 23.39% of the nation's geographical area under forest and tree cover in 2020.[1] India encompasses a wide range of biomes: desert, high mountains, highlands, tropical and temperate forests, swamplands, plains, grasslands, areas surrounding rivers, as well as island archipelago. It hosts four biodiversity hotspots: the Himalayas, the Western Ghats, the Indo-Burma region and Sundaland (including the Nicobar Islands).[2] These hotspots have numerous endemic species.[3] Nearly 5% of India's total area is formally classified under protected areas. The flora and fauna of India have been studied and recorded from early times in folk traditions and later by researchers following more formal scientific approaches (see Natural history in India). Game laws are reported from the third century BC
