They are found in a tropical monsoon climate. These areas have hot, wet summers with heavy rainfall and cool, dry winters. Tropical deciduous forests are also called monsoon forests.

Grasses and thorny bushes grow in drier regions. Elephants, rhinoceroses, bears, deer, apes, lion tiger, leopards, etc., are some of the wildlife species found here.
