Nepal, the country of high Himalayas, splendid mountains, strange wildlife and diverse cultures is a world in itself. Nepal has a unique landscape stretches from the pinnacle of Mt. Everest (8848 m) in the north to Lumbini, the birthplace of Lord Gautam Buddha, in southern Terai where diverse human cultures and natural habitats can be found. It is a matter of pleasure to mention that Nepal is also a home of countless river, glacial lakes, lakes, and creeks with their common origin in the Himalaya. The Greater One-horned Rhinoceros is perhaps the most enduring symbol of Nepal’s rich biological heritage. Nepal is a paradise for bird lovers with over 646 species (almost 8% of the world total) of birds. Nepal also offers a wide range of climatic, geographic and vegetation variations according to the altitude. This wide variation has favored varieties of species of flora and fauna to thrive.
