Where are the rainforests?
Rainforests cover six per cent of the Earth’s surface. There are rainforests in many parts of
the world but the biggest forests are in South America, Africa and South East Asia. There aren’t a
ny rainforests in Europe or North America.
What’s in the rainforests?
About 75% of all the types of animals that we know come from rainforests. Thousands and t
housands of animals live in rainforests. There are many very beautiful birds, insects and reptiles.
Many of them live in the trees, more than 30 meters from the ground. There are also thousands of
different plants and lots of tall trees! It is always hot in a rainforest and the ground is always wet. I

Unluckily, in many places, the rainforests are in danger. For example, many years ago there
was a large rainforest in Java. There were thousands of different plants and animals in the forest,
but now there is nothing. People chopped down the trees because they wanted to grow rice. Many
animals lived in the rainforest. Some of them went to other parts of Java but many of them disappe
ared ( 消
