Chilean's fauna and flora
![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjIhxqap5lGcL53rn8hs2W3jnPCb-Yk6HjNuGdOu-0BESiVCWuWX-cy2tcKlGuU4GVOXbkI-aP3HwL7sq1pA6U9vW6JNtJttls4NW3S-QhXSmWfHonRQZ2GtKxv7VDyqk4qDhTIPBuP4bUO/s320/calicanto_10.jpg)
The fauna of the country is as varied as its flora, though less abundant. Of the mammalian group, the species which especially stand out are the puma, the guanaco (related to camels), the huemul (pertaining to the family of ciervos and native to the country), the vizcacha (a rodent with a taste for the rocky places of the mountains or antiplano), and another ciervos relative and the smallest of the family, the pudu, which is very difficult to observe in the wild.
But the Chilean fauna isn't limited to the rugged geography of the mountain range, the aridity of the desert or the richness of the southern forests and Patagonia. The long coastline that flanks the west of the country also presents a great variety of species ranging from sea lions, seals, dolphins and otters, to collosal whales in the icy southern waters.

Flora
Our country offers a wide variety of plants thanks to its diversity of geography and climate. In the north, on the coast, the vegetation is nearly non-existant if it weren't for a large variety of cacti. In more central regions of the north, more vegetation can be found because of a more humid environment, with the largest part consisting of shrubbery and trees with hard leaves, a number of species such as the litre, lun, guayacan, peumo, and many others. Further south, you will find trees such as the oak, coigüe (evergreen), hazelnut, canelo, araucaria, and larch. A large part of the diversity of the flora in Chile is characterized by the borders of certain areas that contain it, and for that reason the trees, shrubbery, and other flora we will continue to refer to correspond to the most representative and characteristic of national flora. Many species are in serious risk of extinction. The extraordinary quality of some native species- like the larch and the araucaria- because of its slow growth and indiscriminate felling of its forests, have resulted in the disappearance of forests that are thousands of years old. And the process of destruction (or what some call progress) shows no sign of slowing. |
