Biomes are large regions of the Earth that have distinct climates and characteristic plant and animal communities. Climate, plant (flora) and animal (fauna) life - forms, and geographic location play crucial roles in biome classification. Geographic location affects climate and thus the types of flora and fauna that can exist there. However, while animals are part of what defines a biome, they are not the sole - determining factor.
