Cascadia Biogeographic Region

The Cascadia Biogeographic Region covers the diverse ecosystems of the Pacific Northwest, including coastal rainforests, mountain ranges, and inland forests in parts of Canada and the United States. It is characterized by a mild, moist climate that supports abundant plant and animal life, such as towering conifers, salmon, and bears. This region's natural features are shaped by factors like ocean currents, mountain barriers, and rainfall patterns, creating a unique environment that sustains rich biodiversity and complex ecological interactions across its landscape.
