The Everest region hosts a variety of wildlife adapted to high altitudes, including snow leopards, Himalayan tahrs, red pandas, and Himalayan monals. The lower slopes are covered with forests of rhododendrons, pines, and junipers, while the upper regions are rocky, icy, and barren. Glaciers and rivers from Everest feed into major rivers like the Ganges and Brahmaputra. The region’s ecosystems are fragile and sensitive to climate change and human activity. Conservation efforts help protect both wildlife and local communities.
