Ahh, the Amazon Rainforest is the best place to live. The vibrant beams of sunlight give me immaculate places to lie. The bright green colors of nature reflect against the rippling streams of the forest. Sounds in the wild are so satisfying. Crickets steady songs make the forest peaceful. However, when a macho predator like me lives in the forest; it is a lot more serene, quiet, and lonesome anyway. I am a feared predator, who packs quite a wallop. Boa Constrictors are feared, but I go beyond that. Far from mediocre. Other predators do not compare to me, because I am simply the best.
Surveying the Amazon Rainforest provides an amazing view. This rainforest is truly amazing. Trees tower over everything as if they were skyscrapers, and the sounds

However, my feasts are big. My stature is broad. I am a thick, heavy snake, so my appetite consists of dazzling, meaty prey. Deer are my main targets, but they are quite shifty. They glide through the air with precision. In other words, they are much faster than me. Boars are a much easier target. Their stubby feet can not gain as much ground, so I'm able to use my ruthlessness and take down those tiny squeak toys. Now, preparation is key. Wait until the stars are luminous, and the man in the moon is smiling bright. When the forest is lit with a trillions of lights, and the insects are chirping their little tunes. Serenity is what most would think, but it is my opportunity to cease the attitude infested boars. Stalking for prey, as I slither through the moonlit forest. The scent of the boar is compelling. It is not hard to pinpoint the rotten pigsty. While I remain in stealth mode, I approach the pigpen with the intent to ruin some beauty sleep. But as I lurk closer, the scent doubles. Well, two is better than one. Boars shed like a they have a case of traumatic alopecia. Frizzy hair soaks the ground like a flash flood, but that does not stop my ravenousness. As I continue to be secretive, I slither until I am inches from the boar’s throat. It can not make even a single squeal. Where do you speak from? That's right, your throat. My jaws clamp down faster than deer run. To make this as subtle as possible, picture that deer gliding through the forest. Those are my keen fangs gliding through this boar’s throat. Unfortunately, I spooked off the other boar. Not as devious as I anticipated. Which, this boar is plenty fattening. His or Her stomach reminds me of a cloud, because it's big, white, and puffy. My execution was textbook, and that is why I got a scrumptious meal. Dinner is
The Amazon forest occupies a relevant place on the international scene and its importance is recognized worldwide. The goal of this paper is to present general information about the Amazon area, showing the biodiversity and the environmental, social, and economic impact in exploring that area. This paper will also emphasize what are the values of that ecosystem to the world, explaining about several natural resources, fauna, and flora in the Amazon forest. The author supported his arguments on articles and books that are in the reference. As a result, the author provides an overview and some important details about that area, bringing arguments and evidences to show why is important take care of the Amazon forest.
As a result of deforestation and other causes, as few as 10,000 species go extinct every year, with a multitude lost in the rainforests across the world. The Amazon Rainforest, the largest rainforest in the world, houses roughly, “40,000 plant species, 427 mammals, 1,300 birds, 378 reptiles, and around 3,000 freshwater fish,” as well as more than 100,000 of invertebrate species (Amazon Wildlife). The rapid loss of the Amazon rainforest, precisely 17% in the last fifty years, critically cripples the biodiversity of the rainforest. To explain, every vehicle that destroys any sort of foliage is a loss to the animals that live in the forest. As known, every animal consumes a multitude of different plants or animals, and the more plants in the area,
When one thinks about the Amazon rainforest often our minds flip to monkeys, toucans, and lots of trees. We think of the peacefulness and serenity of untouched land and the balance that nature has to offer. What we don’t think of is primitive tribes, mass killings, deadly snakes, ferocious jaguars, and satanic activity. This is the Amazon that Michael Dawson and his family were accustomed to. This was Yanomamo.
The Interdependence of plants, animals, and humans is integral in the Amazon Rainforest ecosystem of the tropical rainforest biome. The key features of the Amazon Rainforest is the Amazon River. The Amazon Rainforest goes through Brazil, Peru, Colombia, and many other countries. Colombia has 10%, Brazil has 60%, and Peru has 13%. 80-90 degrees during the day and 50 degrees at night is the temperature of the Amazon Rainforest. There are dry and wet seasons. it gets 9 to 10 feet of rain a year. The terrain is in the Amazon Rainforest are rocky mountains, wetlands , plains, valleys, rivers, streams, and highlands. The dirt is poor with very few nutrients and it is very muddy. It is also dense with trees and rotting logs. The thin topsoils, made of decaying vegetable and animal parts, take up all the nutrients. In the Amazon Rainforest there 's the Congo River, the Rio Negro, and the Amazon River.
One of the biome which I found interesting was the Amazon rainforest. The Amazon Rainforest is region which is owned by more than 1 country because of its land mass. It is actually owned by 9 nations. This biome is situated in the amazon basin of South Africa. The Amazon Rainforest covers 5,500,000 km2 (2,123,562 sq mi) of total 7000000 km2 of the Amazon basin. This particular rainforest cover more than 50% of the world rainforest biome. So as to understand this particular rainforest biome better, I am going to talk about the Brazil part of the rainforest as it owns 60% of the rainforest. I found this particular
My team has discovered a new population of sloths in the Amazon Rainforest. The team has a job of figuring out three things regarding these sloths. The team has to determine if the new population is evolving, how it is related to other sloth populations near it, and if it is a different species than the other sloth populations.
Did you know that the rainforest is a fantastic biome? It has three parts that make it special. The forest is also home to more plant life than any other. It’s pretty big. Rainforests have a climate and appearance, producers, and consumers specific to the ecosystem.
The beauty, majesty, and timelessness of a primary rainforest is indescribable. It is impossible to capture on film, to describe in words, or to explain to those who have never had the awe-inspiring experience of standing in the heart of a primary rainforest. Rainforests have evolved over millions of years to turn into the incredibly complex environments they are today. Rainforests represent a store of living and breathing renewable natural resources that for eons, by virtue of their richness in both animal and plant species, have contributed a wealth of resources for the survival and well-being of humankind. These resources have included basic food supplies, clothing, shelter, fuel, spices,
The flora and fauna in this rain forest adds the beauty to this special amazing place. The boat ride in the river while watching different species of birds and animals makes the adventure fantastic and this Amazon Jungle has many un touched sites that are rarely interrupted by the humans.
The Amazon Rainforest is a birder's paradise. More than 1,500 species of birds are living there.
To begin, climate plays a major role in the creation and maintenance of soil. Firstly, wind can blow soil to a different area. In the 1930s, there was a drought in the prairies and topsoil blew away. The soil was dry and all the vegetation died, so it was light and the wind blew the topsoil away, exposing the subsoil. This greatly reduced the amount of topsoil in the prairies. Secondly, rain supports growth of plants, creating more humus from plant decay. In the west coast forest vegetation region, there is a lot of precipitation, which supports plant growth. The large amounts of precipitation in the west coast of canada supports the plant growth. After the plants grow, they eventually die and decay, turning into humus. This fertilizes the
Tropical rainforests have long been home to indigenous peoples who have shaped civilizations and cultures based on the environment in which they live. Great civilizations like the Mayas, Incas, and Aztecs developed complex societies and made great contributions to science. Living from nature and lacking the technology to dominate their environment, native peoples have learned to watch their surroundings and understand the intricacies of the rainforest. Over generations these people have learned the importance of living within their environment and have come to rely on the countless renewable benefits that forests can provide.
According to rainforestanimals.net it states, "A wide variety of life including insects and larger animals living in ( Rainforest floor) this layer include Jaguars, Bengal Tigers, Okapis, and Southern Cassowaries".

Imagine you are a care-free monkey, swinging from tree to tree in the canopy of a rainforest. You start to hear a low rumble in the distance. "Must be a thunderstorm," you think. Suddenly, the noise surrounds you, there is a roaring in your ears, and trees start to fall from all around you. Your tree collapses, and you catch a glimpse of a giant machine. You let out a feeble call, and you are no more. This is no horror movie, this is real life. All around the world, rainforests, their ecosystem, and their wildlife is being destroyed.
