Rainforests. Did you know that there are nearly 30 million living species in rainforests, one of the most important oxygen sources in the world? Here’s what you don’t know about rainforests…
Rainforests are also called evergreen forests because trees shed their leaves on one side all year long and grow new ones on the other.
They are forests located in tropical regions and receive very high rainfall.
They cover a large area in Latin America, Central Africa, and Southeast Asia.
It hosts 80 percent of the animals that emerged millions of years ago and live on earth.
Here the weather suddenly darkens and at night the crawling or climbing animals come out of their holes amidst screams and calls.
At least 1,500 mm of rain falls in this region annually.
It is thought that the number of living species living in these forests is between 5-30 million.
