Amazon
Rainforest (also known as Amazon Jungle) is the largest forest (especially
rainforest) in the world. This rainforest covers most of the Amazon Basin of
South America. This basin encompasses seven million square kilometers (1.7
billion acres), of which five and a half million square kilometers (1.4 billion
acres) are covered by the rainforest. This forest mostly located in Brazil,
Peru, Colombia, and a minor amounts in Venezuela, Ecuador, Bolivia, Guyana,
Suriname and French Guiana.
Amazon
Rainforest has the biggest biodiversity on the land. It seems that this forest
is the perfect place for tropical plants and animal.This forest is home to about 2.5
million insect species, tens of thousands of plants, and some 2,000 birds and
mammals. To date, at least 40,000 plant species, 2,200 fishes, 1,294 birds, 427
mammals, 428 amphibians, and 378 reptiles, some famous animal in this forest
are, Blue Macaw, Gold Macaw, and Umbrella Cockatoo.
Beside
that, this forest passed by Amazon river, the widest river in the world. Which
has Piranha as the damgerous predator in river biodiversity. The temperature in
Amazon Rainforest is about 23oC until 27 oC. In other
ways, Amazon Rainforest is the 1st important oxygen supplier in the
world.
That’s all
