The forest is a mosaic of dry deciduous woodland\, riverine patches\, seasonal streams\, grasslands\, scrub forests\, and small wetlands\, creating habitats for a remarkable diversity of birds and wildlife. The area’s proximity to the Siswan Dam and Sukhna Wildlife Sanctuary further enhances its ecological significance\, supporting both resident and migratory species.
