The variety of environments also favors the presence of small mammals, birds of prey, and reptiles adapted to transitional conditions. This diversity transforms the region into an area of interest for researchers and visitors seeking to understand the breadth of northeastern ecosystems beyond the coast.

Serra das Mangabeiras serves as a natural divisor of watersheds and houses springs that feed essential rivers for human supply and rural activities.
