Rainforest and Species PDF Print E-mail

A typical four square mile area of rainforest contains as many as 1,500 flowering plants, 750 species of trees, 400 species of birds and 150 species of butterflies.

Deforestation causes the loss of over 137 plant, animal and insect species per day.  That is over 50,000 species per year

At the current rate of tropical forest loss, 5-10 percent of tropical rainforest species will be lost per decade.
There are more species of fish in the Amazon than in the Atlantic Ocean.
