The tropical rainforest is one of the world’s most threatened biomes, despite being home to some of the most diverse and unique species on the planet. Many of the world’s most colorful creatures reside in rainforests, and animals from tiny organisms to large wild cats find homes amongst the range of plant life.
For many years tropical rain forests were safe from the presence of man, other than native tribal individuals who lived harmoniously with the land, but the problem of man’s encroachment on rain forests for lumber, agriculture, and development is having serious effects on the long-term survival of these regions.
