The wildlife of Bangladesh includes Bangladesh's flora and fauna. Bangladesh is home to roughly 53 species of amphibian, 19 species of marine reptiles, 139 species of reptile, 380 species of birds, 116 species of mammals and 5 species of marine mammals. In addition to the large bird count, a further 310 species of migratory birds swell bird numbers each year. It has the Bengal tiger, Asian elephant, hoolock gibbon, Asian black bear and other flagship species.〔 The vast majority of these creatures currently dwell in an area of land that is some 150,000 sq kilometers in size. However this does not mean all is well with the country’s natural heritage. So far a number of creatures have disappeared completely from the country and a further 201 species are threatened. The dhole, also called the Asiatic wild dog, is now endangered by habitat and prey-species loss and human persecution. Notable animal species that have disappeared from Bangladesh are the one-horned rhinoceros, the two-horned rhinoceros, the gaur, the banteng, swamp deer, nilgai, Indian wolf, wild water buffalo, marsh crocodile and common peafowl.〔 The majority of the human population lives in or around large cities and this has helped to limit deforestation to some extent. However, the growth rate continues to increase and this has placed large demands on the environment and lead to subsequent clearing of numerous natural habitats. Though several areas are protected under law, a large portion of Bangladeshi wildlife is threatened by this growth. ==Gallery== File:Panthera tigris tigris.jpg|Bengal tiger is the national symbol of Bangladesh File:Wild Asian Elephant.jpg|Wild Asian elephant, can be seen in hilly areas of Bangladesh File:Ulluk-2.jpg|Hoolock gibbon in Bangladesh File:Sambar_Stag.jpg|Sambar deer File:Big_croc.jpg|The saltwater crocodile is the largest of all living reptiles File:Axis_axis_(Nagarhole,_2010).jpg|Chital deer are widely seen in Sundarbans and othr mangrove forests File:Clouded_leopard.jpg|Clouded leopards can be found in the southeastern part File:Python_molurus_тигровый_питон.jpg|''Python reticulatus'' is the world's longest snake and longest reptile File:Elapidae_-_Ophiophagus_hannah.JPG|The king cobra is the world's longest venomous snake File:Great-Hornbill.jpg|Great hornbill File:Rose-ringed_Parakeet_eating_leaves.JPG|Rose-ringed parakeet File:Trachypithecus_pileatus.JPG|Capped langur at Lawachara National Park File:Leptoptilos_javanicus_1.jpg|Lesser adjutant File:Masked_Finfoot.jpg|Masked finfoot a beautiful bird found in the mangrove forests File:Binturong_in_Overloon.jpg|Binturong File:Black_tailed_fox_(Bengal_Fox)_at_Desert_NP_(cropped).jpg|Bengal fox File:Flickr_-_don_macauley_-_Varanus_salvator.jpg|Water monitor is the world's second-heaviest lizard, after the Komodo dragon.
