With rich hardwood forests, Appalachian coniferous forests, and coastal salt and freshwater marshes, Virginia is a wildlife-rich state. Black Bears and White-tailed Deer are stand-outs in the hardwood forests that cover nearly half of Virginia. Here, there are also numerous species of breeding wood-warblers. In swampy forests, luminous Prothonotary Warblers nest in cavities. Virginia is particularly renowned for its astounding diversity of salamanders, which occupy various habitats.
