Now that the Protected Landscape Area has been in existence for 30 years, the Křivoklát region can be described as the area of the Czech Republic which has undergone the most detailed botanical study. Although its fauna has not been studied as systematically as its flora, new discoveries provide proof that the Křivoklát area is one of the rich regions that has seen the survival of the entire range of animal species, considered extinct in other areas. The fact that the Křivoklát area was included in the list of UNESCO Biosphere Reserves in 1977 has contributed to the intensity of research.
