Vietnam has a rich and varied flora. Deforestation has had its effect in the last 50 years. Vietnamese forests are made up of some trees similar to those seen in Europe (fir trees, oaks), but also rare and precious species (teak, mahogany). The diversity of natural habitats works well alongside the rich and varied fauna. Tigers, lepoards, rhinos, bears and monkeys of all sorts make up the Vietnamese fauna, or what's left of it... Aware of the danger its lands are in, the government is trying to preserve its natural heritage and curb poaching and deforestation, but this has come quite late in the day. Today, sadly, we are a long way from the Vietnam of yesteryear.
