It forms a major part of the Palak Wildlife Sanctuary, located in a biodiversity-rich Indo-Burma hotspot. The sanctuary around the lake supports diverse flora and fauna, including unique and migratory bird species, various fish, prawns, snails, turtles, and tortoises.
The lake is fed by mountain streams and drains through the small Pala Lui river, which supports local agriculture in the valley below.
