The Amazon Rainforest

rainforest in southeastern Peru is home to one of the world's greatest concentration

of biodiversity and have a spectacular variety of flora and fauna.

Tambopata Reserve Bahuaja child is one of the highest biodiversity on Earth. The records, covering more than 700 bird species, 1,200 species of butterflies, 90 species of mammals, reptiles and amphibians and 120 species of insects innumerable. Over 400 bird species have been recorded in the region visited tours vase, but there are places where you can see over 100 species a day.

The Forest

Amazon region covers a total area of over 7.5 million square kilometers, as part of the territory in nine countries: Brazil, Venezuela, Colombia, Peru, Bolivia and Ecuador, Suriname, Guyana and French Guiana, Amazon has three 54,000 000 square kilometers of continuous forest area, the largest in the world. Paradoxically, low soil fertility: 78% acid and is difficult to use for agriculture. Biological diversity is also greatest in the world: While the 4-25 species of trees / ha in North America, between 40 and 300 different species of trees in the Amazon jungle. There are over 5,000 species of trees.

The volume of rainfall in the Amazon Basin is truly astounding: more than 15 million cubic meters annually. The rainfall generally evaporate 48%, 52% of the courses of rivers, and finally the sea. Forest ecosystems changed substantially from the average in the environment, only 25% and 25% evaporates into the rivers, the best preserved forest.

Amazon jungle could be seen as a kind of "environmental filter" for carbon dioxide (CO2) into the atmosphere as the forest plants to absorb more CO2, rather than separate. Unfortunately, the rapid human interests in the Amazon is causing many environmental problems caused by the destruction of the original ecosystem. Approximately 12.5% of the original tropical forests cover 500,000 square kilometers and has been burned or serene. Entry for gold and other precious metals mining companies and employment in agriculture are the main culprits. Although the number of destruction decreased recently, growing at an alarming rate.

Animals

Amazon rainforest is rich in all types of wildlife insects to mammals. cubic meters of soil is 100 times more insects and mites found in the northern hemisphere. Huge amounts of water and mild temperatures make the kind of fertile incubator also: has more than 3000 species of fish in the Amazon, which represents 85% of all species living in South America, and 15% of species worldwide. However, only 40% of the species studied by scientists and about 36 species of fish subject to economic exploitation.
