Rain forests number some of the most fascinating and diverse ecosystems in the world. The largest areas of rain forest are tropical or temperate rain forests of the type found surrounding the Amazon River in South America and the Congo River in Africa. The tropical islands of Southeast Asia and parts of Australia also support dense rain forest environments. These moist and humid habitats are home to more than half of the world's plant and animal species—mammals, birds, insects, plants, and flowers.
