Refimprove date September 2010 The fauna of England is similar to that of other areas of Northern Europe and the British Isles and lies within the Palearctic ecozone . England s fauna is mainly made up of small animals and is notable for having few large mammals, but in similarity with other island nations many bird species. England for the most part has a oceanic climate , which lacks extremes of heat or cold and provides plentiful rainfall making the country a rather green environment and providing much food for small and grazing animals. England is different in respect to Scotland in its wildlife due to its slightly warmer climate, lower land levels and more dense populations, and whilst this is bad for some species of animals, it is good for others. The fauna of England is also very diverse since its landscapes are very different from each other and so this is represented in the Flora of England flora and fauna. Overview England has a Oceanic climate temperate oceanic climate in most areas, lacking extremes of cold or heat, but does have a few small areas of Subarctic climate subarctic and warmer areas in South West England the South West .
