The Shirmard rangelands represent one of the areas with high biological richness in Chaharmahal and Bakhtiari Province. Due to their distinctive geographical location, altitudinal variability, and diverse climatic conditions, these rangelands serve as a habitat for a wide range of plant and animal species and possess considerable potential for ecological and conservation-oriented research. Nearly all major vegetation types found in this part of the country, including oak forests, pistachio, almond, various species of Astragalus, and juniper, are present. The regional flora comprises more than 800 plant species, several dozen of which are endemics. Moreover, the diversity of existing ecosystems has turned this area into an important refuge for numerous species of mammals, birds, reptiles, and amphibians. A significant proportion of the local population also depends on ecosystem services and natural resources for their livelihoods. The identification and documentation of such areas can play an effective role in ecosystem conservation and the protection of their unique species, while also facilitating their inclusion in conservation management programs. Recognizing these capacities can help attract the attention of responsible organizations and local communities to the environmental values of the area, thereby strengthening their role in planning and implementing conservation and sustainable natural resource management strategies.
