Other trees present are American beech, swamp white oak, and American holly. Some 100 acres (40 ha) of this forest is old-growth filled with trees of impressive sizes and ages. The black gum are nearly 4 feet (120 cm) in diameter and 600 years old. The sweetgum again nearly 4 feet (120 cm) in diameter, and 300 years old. The red maple are over 4 feet (120 cm) in diameter. The American holly are particularly large, reaching 22 inches (56 cm) in diameter and 80 feet (24 m) tall. Bear Swamp East is in Belleplain State Forest. It covers 1,439 acres (582 ha) and contains 115 acres (47 ha) of old-growth forest.

As many as 30 bald eagles nest in the swamp, and it is home to the oldest continuously occupied bald eagle nest in New Jersey. It is a breeding site for red-shouldered hawks, barred owls, and Cooper's hawks, all species of concern in the state.
