amazon rainforest

The Amazon rainforest once covered roughly seven million square kilometers. Its moist climate led to lush vegetation, which in turn produced the greatest terrestrial biodiversity found on the planet. With so much living matter concentrated in one area, the soil of the forest became fertile via waste and decomposing biomass. These factors created a natural reinforcing system, a harmony in which all parts affected the other and yielded a unique and diverse ecoregion.

Amazon River


Stafford noted that he’s not really an "Amazon River " though he did also say that he hoped his efforts would raise awareness about the destruction of the Amazon rain forest. Instead, Stafford noted that his trek was more about endurance and pushing his own limits. Said Stafford,  Stafford is 34 years old and in very good shape.

Amazon Fish

Amazon Fish fish have a bony skeleton, except rays and sharks have cartilaginous skeleton. Fish breathe using the gills, which perform an exchange of gases between the fish’s blood and water. Most fish feed on small plants, while some fish such as shark feed on other fish.

Amazon Jungle tree

Amazon Jungle tree many Galapagos visitors, plants are of secondary interest. It's nice to eat fruit or enjoy the salads served up on tourist boats. Yet from a biological standpoint the Galapagos flora (comprised about 600 species), are as unique and special as the fauna. Remember that without the plants, most of the native land animals would not survive.

Trees are the basis of the forest as we experience it. Tall columns of gray and brown, some covered in white patches of lichen, surround us as we stroll along a trail. Innumerable hues of green light filter through their foliage. From their leafy crowns come the calls of various birds that forage among the rich bounty of freely provided fruit.

As you drive up a bumpy road on one of the larger islands, you progress through a series of distinct vegetation zones, each characterized by its own community of plants. These zones are one of the reasons for the variety of plant life found on the islands.
